Atkins #3 (API 42-461-32187) is a plugged well in Upton County, plugged November 6, 2012, last operated by Parsley Energy Operations LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 4, 1984, permitted to 9,350 ft.

It was permitted by Saxon Oil Company and has since transferred to Parsley Energy Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including U. Sprayberry, L. Sprayberry, Jo Mill, Dean.

Its lease has reported 54.1K barrels of oil and 320K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in October 2019. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
