Mcconnell #5 (API 42-065-30949) is a plugged well in Carson County, plugged May 27, 2011, last operated by Legacy Reserves Operating LP.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 1, 1981, permitted to 4,000 ft.
It was permitted by Danco Oil & Gas and has since transferred to Legacy Reserves Operating LP on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Dolomite.
Its lease has reported 6.13K barrels of oil and 133K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in January 2012. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
