Bullhead #5-X (API 42-383-32121) is a plugged well in Reagan County, plugged July 7, 2025, last operated by Discovery Natural Resources LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 30, 1981, permitted to 7,500 ft.

It was permitted by Cox, John L. and has since transferred to Discovery Natural Resources LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Redbeds, Spraberry.

Its 2 leases have reported 7.55M barrels of oil and 54.9M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 141 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
