Mcelmurray A.H. #5 (API 42-353-31943) is a plugged well in Nolan County, plugged August 29, 1996, last operated by Tema Oil And Gas Company.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits (amended once) between 1986 and 2011, permitted to 6,200 ft.
It was permitted by Cedar Oil Company and has since transferred to Tema Oil And Gas Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Noodle Creek, Strawn, Caddo, Conglomerate.
Its 3 leases have reported 176K barrels of oil and 60K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 707 barrels injected in the 12 months reported through November 2025.
