Shackelford County · Nolen (King Sand) field · Vertical
Sandefer #3 (API 42-417-36477) is a well in Shackelford County operated by Hudgins Iii Development Inc., completed August 28, 1985.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 20, 1985, permitted to 2,000 ft.
It was permitted by Pony Oil Company and has since transferred to Hudgins Iii Development Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including King Sand.
Its lease has reported 10.1K barrels of oil and 90 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.
Operator of record
Permitted by Pony Oil Company; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
