Dabb #3 (API 42-475-37097) is a plugged well in Ward County, plugged June 9, 2022, last operated by Blackbeard Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 27, 2016, permitted to 5,200 ft.

It was permitted by Northstar Operating Company and has since transferred to Blackbeard Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Seven Rivers, Queen.

Its lease has reported 24.4K barrels of oil and 35.2K mcf of gas since March 2015, last reporting in January 2024. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
