Carthage Gas Unit 17 #3 (API 42-365-32443) is a plugged well in Panola County, plugged September 30, 2020, last operated by Valence Operating Company.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1991 and 2007, permitted to 10,200 ft.

It was permitted by Encana Oil & Gas(USA) Inc. and has since transferred to Valence Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Massive Anhydrite (marker), Rodessa, Pettit, Travis Peak.

Its 2 leases have reported 637 barrels of oil and 659K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 2 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.
