Thetford #3
McMullen County · A.W.P. (Olmos) field · Shut IN · Vertical
Thetford #3 (API 42-311-32188) is a well in Mcmullen County operated by Dorado Drilling Inc., completed August 18, 2000 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 5, 1984, permitted to 9,500 ft.
It was permitted by Tana Oil & Gas Corp. and has since transferred to Dorado Drilling Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 66.8K barrels of oil and 2.05M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Tana Oil & Gas Corp.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
