Hockley County · Linker (Clear Fork) field · Producing · Vertical
Linker Vinnie C. #5 (API 42-219-37155) is a well in Hockley County operated by Burk Royalty CO. Ltd., completed March 22, 2011 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 9, 2010, permitted to 7,730 ft.
It was permitted by Chaparral Energy, L.L.C. and has since transferred to Burk Royalty CO. Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Clear Fork, Tubb.
Its lease has reported 507K barrels of oil and 35.7K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Nov 6, 2013. Density, Neutron. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
