Martin County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Shut IN  · Horizontal

Slaughter 12 #3 (API 42-317-41167) is a horizontal well in Martin County operated by Ovintiv USA Inc., completed June 1, 2018 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 15, 2017, permitted to 12,000 ft.

It was permitted by Exl Petroleum Operating Inc. and has since transferred to Ovintiv USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Santa Rosa, Clear Fork, Spraberry, Dean.

Its lease has reported 506K barrels of oil and 519K mcf of gas since August 2017, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
