Bearkat 17 #5 (API 42-173-35370) is a well in Glasscock County operated by Black River Operating LLC, completed January 24, 2013 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued October 11, 2012, permitted to 10,500 ft.

It was permitted by Nadel And Gussman Permian,L.L.C. and has since transferred to Black River Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Clear Fork, Tubb, Wolfcamp, Pennsylvanian.

Its lease has reported 109K barrels of oil and 1.47M mcf of gas since April 2011, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
