Goldston #3 (API 42-503-84571) is a plugged well in Young County, plugged February 8, 2016, last operated by Kimberlin & Huitt.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 9, 1979, permitted to 3,700 ft.
It was permitted by H & L Drilling CO. and has since transferred to Kimberlin & Huitt on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 16.8K barrels of oil and 12K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2025. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
