Hess #3 (API 42-239-31821) is a plugged well in Jackson County, plugged August 31, 2007, last operated by Petro Vest Inc..

The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits (amended once) between 1982 and 2022, permitted to 6,800 ft.

It was permitted by Mamerow Energy Corp and has since transferred to Petro Vest Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Catahoula, Greta, Gretta - Disposal, Frio.

Its 3 leases have reported 49K barrels of oil and 18 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
