Hale 4 #3 (API 42-317-36974) is a plugged well in Martin County, plugged June 7, 2024, last operated by Diamondback E&P LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 25, 2011, permitted to 11,600 ft.
It was permitted by Parsley Energy Operations, LLC and has since transferred to Diamondback E&P LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Spraberry, Strawn, Atoka.
Its lease has reported 323K barrels of oil and 787K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Surface location
No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.

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

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Sep 3, 2014. Neutron. 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.
