Midland AO Fee #3 (API 42-329-32911) is a plugged well in Midland County, plugged November 1, 2011, last operated by Chevron U. S. A. Inc..

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1993 and 1996, permitted to 8,550 ft.

It was permitted by Texaco E & P Inc. and has since transferred to Chevron U. S. A. Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including San Andres, Clear Fork, Spraberry.

Its lease has reported 36.5K barrels of oil and 281K mcf of gas since January 1994, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
