Brown & Altman Gas Unit No. 3 #33
Winkler County · Emperor East (Clear Fork Lo.) field · Temp Abandoned · Vertical
Brown & Altman Gas Unit NO. 3 #33 (API 42-495-31476) is a well in Winkler County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed April 28, 1982 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in April 1, 2025.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1982 and 1994, permitted to 6,800 ft.
It was permitted by Exxon Corp. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 9 formation tops, including Tubb, Clear Fork, Capitan, Colby / Queen.
Its 2 leases have reported 302K barrels of oil and 3.59M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in March 2025. The leases carry 16 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
