Shackelford County · Shackelford County Regular field · Shut IN · Vertical
Newell #3 (API 42-417-36474) is a well in Shackelford County operated by Hughes & Patterson Oper. Corp., completed August 31, 1985 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 13, 1985, permitted to 1,500 ft.
It was permitted by Patterson, Marvin and has since transferred to Hughes & Patterson Oper. Corp. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Bluff Creek.
Its lease has reported 1.4K barrels of oil and 22 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
