Ross R.L. 116 #5 (API 42-461-10582) is a plugged well in Upton County, plugged July 26, 2022, last operated by Apache Corporation.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1992 and 1996, permitted to 11,870 ft.

It was permitted by Arco Permian and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including Spraberry, Wichita-Albany, Dean, Wolfcamp.

Its 5 leases have reported 114K barrels of oil and 1.03M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
