Starr County · Rincon North (4350) field · Vertical
Martinez #3 (API 42-427-31901) is a plugged well in Starr County, plugged September 14, 1992, last operated by Magnum Engineering Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 4, 1984, permitted to 5,800 ft.
It was permitted by Goldking Prod. CO. and has since transferred to Magnum Engineering Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Upr. 4350, Lwr. 4350.
Its lease has reported 15.8K barrels of oil and 63.1K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2008. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
