Schwab D. L. #5 (API 42-219-35514) is a plugged well in Hockley County, plugged December 20, 2002, last operated by Rocker A Operating Company.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 19, 1990, permitted to 5,500 ft.

It was permitted by Wheeler Oil Company and has since transferred to Rocker A Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Pi Sand, San Andres.

Its lease has reported 44K barrels of oil and 37.8K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in June 2003. The lease carries 11 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.
