Childress Owen D. #5 (API 42-383-37439) is a plugged well in Reagan County, plugged May 18, 2022, last operated by Diamondback E&P LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 22, 2011, permitted to 12,000 ft.

It was permitted by Endeavor Energy Resources L.P. and has since transferred to Diamondback E&P LLC on the wellbore schedule.

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

Its lease has reported 79K barrels of oil and 954K 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.

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