Fitzgerald #5 (API 42-071-31816) is a well in Chambers County operated by Sandpoint Texas LLC, completed June 28, 1991 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued March 13, 1987, permitted to 5,700 ft.
It was permitted by Jimbo, Inc. (I) and has since transferred to Sandpoint Texas LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Miocene (undifferentiated), Het Lime, Frio.
Its lease has reported 48.7K barrels of oil and 10 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
