Marion County · Vicki Lynn (Rodessa) field · Producing · Vertical
Whelan #16 (API 42-315-31017) is a well in Marion County operated by Three Point Energy L.L.C., completed February 15, 2015 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 16, 2014, permitted to 8,000 ft.
It was permitted by Silver Tusk Operating CO. LLC and has since transferred to Three Point Energy L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Nacatoch, Paluxy, Glen Rose, Rodessa.
Its lease has reported 96.4K barrels of oil and 14K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
