Henry Cowden (Gbsa)Unit #5 (API 42-003-04705) is a well in Andrews County operated by R2q Operating LLC, completed March 19, 1984 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in December 1, 2025.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 23, 1983, permitted to 4,780 ft.
It was permitted by Phillips Petroleum Company and has since transferred to R2q Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Grayburg, San Andres.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.63M barrels of oil and 318K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 35 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
