Kenedy County · Sarita ( 3-E) field · Vertical
Sarita Field Oil & Gas Unit #173 (API 42-261-30687) is a well in Kenedy County operated by Exxon Mobil Corporation, completed December 3, 1999.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1982 and 1985, permitted to 7,900 ft.
It was permitted by Exxon Corp. and has since transferred to Exxon Mobil Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Miocene (undifferentiated), Catahoula.
Its 2 leases have reported 178K barrels of oil and 295K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 54 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
