Bivins #16-3RO
Potter County · Panhandle (Red Cave) field · Vertical
Bivins #16-3RO (API 42-375-30587) is a former disposal or injection well in Potter County, last operated by Snw Operating Company; its UIC permit is no longer active.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 6, 1977, permitted to 2,300 ft.
It was permitted by Gas Producing Enterprises, Inc. and has since transferred to Snw Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Red Cave.
Its lease has reported 1.05M barrels of oil and 2.52M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 271 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Gas Producing Enterprises, Inc.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
