King B #5
Lipscomb County · Bradford (Tonkawa) field · Vertical
King B #5 (API 42-295-30736) is a plugged well in Lipscomb County, plugged December 8, 2006, last operated by Unit Petroleum Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 16, 1979, permitted to 6,600 ft.
It was permitted by Amoco Production Company and has since transferred to Unit Petroleum Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 5.36K barrels of oil and 236K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
