Hughes #5 (API 42-383-35028) is a well in Reagan County operated by Clear Water Inc., completed December 28, 1999 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 22, 1999, permitted to 7,900 ft.

It was permitted by Arkland Producing CO., Inc. and has since transferred to Clear Water Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

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

Its lease has reported 85.6K barrels of oil and 959K mcf of gas since November 1995, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
