Riley #3 (API 42-475-32537) is a well in Ward County operated by Diamondback E&P LLC, completed June 15, 1982 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in October 1, 2025.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 25, 1982, permitted to 7,200 ft.

It was permitted by Flag-Redfern Oil CO & Ames O&G and has since transferred to Diamondback E&P LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Anhydrite, Delaware, Cherry Canyon.

Its 2 leases have reported 161K barrels of oil and 857K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 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.
