Fambrough W. #5
Stephens County · Stephens County Regular field · Injection · Vertical
Fambrough W. #5 (API 42-429-32240) is a well in Stephens County operated by Petex, completed November 11, 1983 and listed as injection on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 30, 1979, permitted to 2,850 ft.
It was permitted by Mcbride Production CO. and has since transferred to Petex on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Water Sand.
Its lease has reported 5.31K barrels of oil and 16K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 18.3K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through May 2026.
