Sorrells #3 (API 42-353-32308) is a plugged well in Nolan County, plugged July 21, 1999, last operated by Sinclair Oil Corporation.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 29, 1994, permitted to 7,500 ft.

It was permitted by Union Pacific Resources Company and has since transferred to Sinclair Oil Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Valero, Noodle Creek, Flippen, Canyon.

Its lease has reported 50.3K barrels of oil and 5.64K mcf of gas since June 1994, last reporting in October 1999. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
