Dorsey F #3 (API 42-253-31236) is a plugged well in Jones County, plugged September 20, 2005, last operated by Schneider Energy Exploration Inc.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 26, 1979, permitted to 2,800 ft.
It was permitted by Jacobs, C. E., CO. and has since transferred to Schneider Energy Exploration Inc on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 83.1K barrels of oil and 20 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 35 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
