Newell Dell -B- #3 (API 42-417-36308) is a plugged well in Shackelford County, plugged October 13, 2003, last operated by Martin Jimmy Inc.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 13, 1985, permitted to 1,600 ft.
It was permitted by Whitt, W. J. and has since transferred to Martin Jimmy Inc on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Sedwick Lime, Dothan Lime, Tannehill, Saddle Creek.
Its lease has reported 206 barrels of oil and 20 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2008. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
