Terry County · Welch field · Vertical
Wolford #3 (API 42-445-31102) is a plugged well in Terry County, plugged January 24, 2018, last operated by Byrd Operating Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 13, 1982, permitted to 5,000 ft.
It was permitted by Lacy & Byrd, Inc. and has since transferred to Byrd Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including San Andres.
Its lease has reported 45.3K barrels of oil and 7.58K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in June 2018. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
