Russell Clearfork Unit #5 (API 42-165-33065) is a plugged well in Gaines County, plugged July 3, 2024, last operated by Hilcorp Energy Company.

The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits (amended once) between 1984 and 1995, permitted to 7,800 ft.

It was permitted by Mobil Producing TX. & N.M. Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Clear Fork, U/Clearfork.

Its 4 leases have reported 18.1M barrels of oil and 12.1M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 804 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
