Tumbleweed Foster Unit #3
King County · Tumbleweed (Lower Tannehill) field · NO Production · Vertical
Tumbleweed Foster Unit #3 (API 42-269-31535) is a well in King County operated by Ridglea Energy I LLC, completed January 20, 1986 and listed as no production on the RRC schedule, shut in March 1, 2020.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued October 30, 1985, permitted to 4,000 ft.
It was permitted by Sun Expl. & Prod. CO.-Abilene and has since transferred to Ridglea Energy I LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Noodle Creek, B/Stockwether, T/Tannehill Sand, Tannehill.
Its lease has reported 257K barrels of oil and 2.1K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 10 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.
