Dickson #5 (API 42-163-32662) is a plugged horizontal well in Frio County, plugged September 11, 2013, last operated by Stonegate Operators Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued March 6, 1990, permitted to 11,000 ft.
It was permitted by Tex-Hex Corp. and has since transferred to Stonegate Operators Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Austin Chalk.
Its lease has reported 21.9K barrels of oil and 28.1K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
