Starr County · Arroyo Grande (Queen City) field · Producing · Vertical
Gonzales #3 (API 42-427-33794) is a well in Starr County operated by Starr Operating LLC, completed February 16, 2005 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 31, 2004, permitted to 5,000 ft.
It was permitted by Newgulf Petroleum, LLC and has since transferred to Starr Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Crockett, Cook Mtn, Queen City.
Its lease has reported 140K barrels of oil and 646K mcf of gas since November 2004, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
