Borden County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Shut IN · Horizontal
Lil El C #5A (API 42-033-32742) is a horizontal well in Borden County operated by Crescent Energy Operating LLC, completed June 2, 2025 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 3, 2024, permitted to 9,000 ft.
It was permitted by Vital Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Santa Rosa, Tecovas, Dewy Lake, Rustler.
Its lease has reported 208K barrels of oil and 265K mcf of gas since June 2025, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
