Reagan County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Vertical
Bullhead #5X (API 42-383-32067) is a plugged well in Reagan County, plugged December 7, 2023, last operated by Discovery Natural Resources LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 25, 1981, permitted to 7,300 ft.
It was permitted by Cox, John L. and has since transferred to Discovery Natural Resources LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 7.65M barrels of oil and 55.6M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 145 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
