Moss J. H. -C- #3 (API 42-495-05253) is a well in Winkler County operated by Gruy Petroleum Management CO., completed November 29, 1973.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 22, 1995, permitted to 5,500 ft.
It was permitted by Hallwood Petroleum, Inc. and has since transferred to Gruy Petroleum Management CO. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including San Adnres, San Andres, Holt.
Its 5 leases have reported 1.71M barrels of oil and 2.25M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 169 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
