R.A.B. Davidson D #3 (API 42-329-33643) is a well in Midland County operated by Ovintiv USA Inc., completed March 24, 1997 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 17, 1997, permitted to 10,153 ft.

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

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Clear Fork, Spraberry, Dean, Wolfcamp.

Its 2 leases have reported 400K barrels of oil and 1.26M mcf of gas since May 1996, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 11 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.
