North Matthews Pvog #5 (API 42-389-32266) is a permitted well in Reeves County filed by Penn Virginia Oil & Gas Corp.; no completion report is on file yet.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued December 6, 2002, permitted to 6,500 ft.

It was permitted by Penn Virginia Oil & Gas Corp. and has since transferred to Priest Petroleum Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Delware, Cherry Canyon, Brushy Canyon.

Its 3 leases have reported 10K barrels of oil and 24.7K mcf of gas since January 2003, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
