Nickens #5 (API 42-237-39741) is a well in Jack County operated by Oakridge Oil And Gas LP, completed June 25, 2013 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule, shut in February 1, 2016.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 16, 2013, permitted to 5,975 ft.
It was permitted by Atlas Barnett, LLC and has since transferred to Oakridge Oil And Gas LP on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Caddo, Marble Falls, Barnett.
Its 3 leases have reported 6.33K barrels of oil and 176K mcf of gas since June 2013, last reporting volume in May 2025. The leases carry 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 Jun 15, 2016. 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.
