Grayson County · Hester (Strawn) field · Shut IN · Vertical
Wright Archie #5 (API 42-181-31288) is a well in Grayson County operated by Aeternum Energy LLC, completed February 21, 2012 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 17, 1995, permitted to 5,700 ft.
It was permitted by Texas Exploration & Prod. CO. and has since transferred to Aeternum Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Hester Sand, Strawn, Ellenburger.
Its lease has reported 28.7K barrels of oil and 30 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.
Operator of record
