Thompson B #5 (API 42-165-35822) is a well in Gaines County operated by Parallel Petroleum LLC, completed November 5, 2013 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 3, 2002, permitted to 4,950 ft.

It was permitted by Caprock Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to Parallel Petroleum LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Yates, Queens, San Andres.

Its lease has reported 527K barrels of oil and 252K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 18 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
