Neal 8 #3 (API 42-461-35124) is a well in Upton County operated by Saxum Opco LLC, completed November 9, 2006 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 7, 2006, permitted to 9,970 ft.

It was permitted by Exl Petroleum, LP and has since transferred to Saxum Opco LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Spraberry, Dean, Wolfcamp, Strawn.

Its lease has reported 231K barrels of oil and 805K mcf of gas since July 2005, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
