Samurai #3H (API 42-495-33028) is a well in Winkler County operated by Special Energy Corporation, completed October 16, 2005.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended twice), issued May 3, 2005, permitted to 8,950 ft.

It was permitted by Gruy Petroleum Management CO. and has since transferred to Special Energy Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Grayburg, Glorieta, Woodford, Devonian.

Its 2 leases have reported 355K barrels of oil and 1.8M mcf of gas since September 2005, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
