Stiles 3 #403 (API 42-483-31719) is a well in Wheeler County operated by Formentera Operations LLC, completed January 28, 2005 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended twice) between 2004 and 2005, permitted to 17,000 ft.

It was permitted by Apache Corporation and has since transferred to Formentera Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Cleveland, Upper Caldwell, Caldwell, Cherokee.

Its 2 leases have reported 41.6K barrels of oil and 2.25M mcf of gas since January 2005, last reporting volume in August 2026. The leases carry 2 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.

Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.

PDQ LEASE REPORTS · REPORTED THROUGH AUG 2026

Well logs

1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Aug 8, 2008. Resistivity. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
