Sugg 51 #5111 (API 42-235-31674) is a plugged well in Irion County, plugged May 22, 2012, last operated by Apache Corporation.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1980 and 1988, permitted to 6,400 ft.

It was permitted by Arco Oil & Gas CO. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Rustler, Clear Fork, Spraberry, Dean.

Its 2 leases have reported 2.49M barrels of oil and 1.7M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 99 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.
