Matthews J. B. #5 (API 42-447-31961) is a plugged well in Throckmorton County, plugged July 12, 2013, last operated by Salty Lime Energy LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 14, 1979, permitted to 2,000 ft.
It was permitted by Teinert, Clifford J. and has since transferred to Salty Lime Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 23.5K barrels of oil and 180 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
