Sau 7-3 #3 (API 42-383-34229) is a plugged well in Reagan County, plugged April 12, 2023, last operated by Apache Corporation.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 7, 1993, permitted to 8,400 ft.

It was permitted by Hardy Oil & Gas USA Inc. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Spraberry, Jo Mill, Dean.

Its lease has reported 137K barrels of oil and 766K mcf of gas since August 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
