Gardendale 14 #5 (API 42-135-42434) is a well in Ector County operated by Ovintiv USA Inc., completed December 13, 2017 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 11, 2013, permitted to 11,460 ft.

It was permitted by Berry Oil Comp. and has since transferred to Ovintiv USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 12 formation tops, including Yates, San Andres, Clear Fork, Dean.

Its lease has reported 886K barrels of oil and 2.88M mcf of gas since March 2010, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 15 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
