Shackelford 44 #3 (API 42-329-32379) is a plugged well in Midland County, plugged September 4, 2025, last operated by Xto Energy Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 20, 1991, permitted to 8,600 ft.
It was permitted by Plains Petroleum Operating CO. and has since transferred to Xto Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including Clear Fork, Clfk Lm, Spraberry, Up Spraberry.
Its lease has reported 67.8K barrels of oil and 543K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
