Farnsworth A #3 (API 42-253-33900) is a plugged well in Jones County, plugged January 6, 2003, last operated by Sojourner Drilling Corporation.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1991 and 1992, permitted to 5,500 ft.
It was permitted by Geotrac Energy Corporation and has since transferred to Sojourner Drilling Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Coleman Junction, Dothan, Flippen, King.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.65K barrels of oil and 69 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2003. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
