Cowden 28 #5 (API 42-329-35183) is a plugged well in Midland County, plugged July 28, 2022, last operated by Diamondback E&P LLC.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 2004 and 2017, permitted to 12,000 ft.

It was permitted by Endeavor Energy Resources L.P. and has since transferred to Diamondback E&P LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Spraberry, Dean, Wolfcamp, Strawn.

Its lease has reported 520K barrels of oil and 2.46M mcf of gas since April 2001, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
