Ray Lee A #5 (API 42-429-36816) is a well in Stephens County operated by Safari Resources LLC, completed May 22, 2013 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued February 22, 2013, permitted to 4,000 ft.
It was permitted by Killion Well Service Inc. and has since transferred to Safari Resources LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Caddo, Lake Sand, Ranger Sand.
Its lease has reported 39.5K barrels of oil and 1.65M mcf of gas since December 2010, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
