Midland County · Moose (Queen) field · Shut In · Vertical
Midland -AA- Fee #3 (API 42-329-31976) is a well in Midland County operated by Smc Oil & Gas Inc., completed July 18, 2023 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in January 1, 2022.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 22, 1987, permitted to 4,500 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco Inc. and has since transferred to Smc Oil & Gas Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 912K barrels of oil and 590 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 20 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
