Garcia James #5 (API 42-187-31805) is a plugged well in Guadalupe County, plugged December 26, 2019, last operated by R & S Oil Production CO..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 28, 1981, permitted to 2,800 ft.
It was permitted by Voigt, Henry M. and has since transferred to R & S Oil Production CO. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 3.63K barrels of oil and 1.11K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
