Sau 5 #4A
Reagan County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Shut In · Vertical
Sau 5 #4A (API 42-383-35240) is a well in Reagan County operated by Apache Corporation, completed February 21, 2003 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in February 1, 2018.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 29, 2002, permitted to 8,235 ft.
It was permitted by Mariner Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Spraberry, Dean.
Its lease has reported 777K barrels of oil and 4.57M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 26 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Surface location
No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.

Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.
