Mcmeans Bill A #5-A (API 42-433-30900) is a plugged well in Stonewall County, plugged June 24, 2024, last operated by Bud Oil Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 29, 1978, permitted to 3,900 ft.
It was permitted by Sauder, A. L., JR. and has since transferred to Bud Oil Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 46.2K barrels of oil and 19 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in June 2025. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
