Elliott A #3
Upton County · Benedum (Fusselman) field · Horizontal
Elliott A #3 (API 42-461-34193) is a horizontal well in Upton County operated by Apache Corporation, completed August 31, 2001.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued May 16, 2001, permitted to 11,350 ft.
It was permitted by Arco Permian and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Queen, Grayburg, San Andres, Spraberry.
Its 2 leases have reported 10.9K barrels of oil and 69.6K mcf of gas since September 2001, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 2.58M barrels injected in the 12 months reported through October 2025.
