Sau 7-3 #3B (API 42-383-35440) is a well in Reagan County operated by Apache Corporation, completed October 20, 2004 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in January 1, 2017.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 18, 2004, permitted to 8,140 ft.

It was permitted by Mariner Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Spraberry, 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.
