Baffin Bay State Gas Unit No. 3 #6
Kenedy County · Baffin Bay (Frio) field · Directional
Baffin Bay State Gas Unit NO. 3 #6 (API 42-261-31311) is a plugged well in Kenedy County, plugged December 6, 2018, last operated by Headington Energy Partners LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued January 8, 2003, permitted to 19,000 ft.
It was permitted by Exxon Mobil Corporation and has since transferred to Headington Energy Partners LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Frio, P 10, Vicksburg.
Its 2 leases have reported 29.6K barrels of oil and 6.51M mcf of gas since August 2003, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
2 logs loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Oct 31, 2006. Density, Neutron, Resistivity. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
