Dietzel Hermann Estate #3 (API 42-469-32529) is a plugged well in Victoria County, plugged September 1, 2017, last operated by Aries Operating LP.

The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits (amended once) between 1987 and 2004, permitted to 3,000 ft.

It was permitted by Kamel Oil, L.L.C. and has since transferred to Aries Operating LP on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Catahoula.

Its 3 leases have reported 164K barrels of oil and 29.9K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 10 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.
