Texas Tech #3 (API 42-303-30577) is a former disposal or injection well in Lubbock County, last operated by Socorro Exploration Inc.; its UIC permit is no longer active.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 18, 1980, permitted to 5,900 ft.
It was permitted by New Reserves Group, Inc. and has since transferred to Socorro Exploration Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Anhydrite, Yates, San Andres, Clear Fork.
Its lease has reported 551K barrels of oil and 1.52K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
