Panola County · Bethany (Palmer Sand) field · Vertical
Roberson Joe #3 (API 42-365-32282) is a well in Panola County operated by Xto Energy Inc., completed December 24, 2006.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended 3 times), issued February 8, 1990, permitted to 8,450 ft.
It was permitted by Sonat Exploration Company and has since transferred to Xto Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Goodland, Glen Rose, Massive Anhydrite (marker), James Lime.
Its 3 leases have reported 6.54K barrels of oil and 925K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
