Lytle #3
Jones County · L.J.G. (Bluff Creek Sand) field · NO Production · Vertical
Lytle #3 (API 42-253-34479) is a well in Jones County operated by King Oil & Resources CO, completed December 11, 1999 and listed as no production on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 9, 1999, permitted to 1,999 ft.
It was permitted by 5l Properties and has since transferred to King Oil & Resources CO on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Saddle Creek, Bluff Creek Sand.
Its lease has reported 33K barrels of oil and 4 mcf of gas since June 1994, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by 5L Properties; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
