Sterling T. J. A #5 (API 42-415-34443) is a well in Scurry County operated by Rigged UP LLC, completed August 7, 2008 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 17, 2008, permitted to 3,700 ft.
It was permitted by Tandem Energy Corporation and has since transferred to Rigged UP LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Glorieta, Clear Fork.
Its lease has reported 26K barrels of oil and 845 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
