Talbot 5 #5F (API 42-227-37312) is a plugged well in Howard County, plugged July 6, 2022, last operated by SM Energy Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 2, 2013, permitted to 12,000 ft.
It was permitted by Linn Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to SM Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 11 formation tops, including Glorieta, Clear Fork, Spraberry, Dean.
Its lease has reported 79K barrels of oil and 350K mcf of gas since June 2011, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Mar 29, 2016. 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.
