Sterling AA Fee #5 (API 42-431-32822) is a well in Sterling County operated by Burk Royalty CO. Ltd., completed July 31, 2008 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1996 and 2008, permitted to 8,500 ft.

It was permitted by Chevron U. S. A. Inc. and has since transferred to Burk Royalty CO. Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Wolfcamp, Cisco, Pennsylvanian.

Its 4 leases have reported 90.9K barrels of oil and 1.13M mcf of gas since June 1995, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 16 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.
