Friess Brothers #B5 (API 42-137-30862) is a well in Edwards County operated by Pnp Operating Company LLC, completed June 4, 1983 and listed as no production on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 16, 1983, permitted to 600 ft.
It was permitted by Paluxy Sands Corporation and has since transferred to Pnp Operating Company LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 31.4K barrels of oil and 144 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 12 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
