Neal H. F. C #5
Upton County · Benedum (Devonian Gas) field · Horizontal
Neal H. F. C #5 (API 42-461-32686) is a horizontal well in Upton County operated by Apache Corporation, completed May 15, 2001.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1987 and 2000, permitted to 11,600 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 Grayburg, San Andres, Dean, Wolfcamp.
Its 2 leases have reported 27.7K barrels of oil and 761K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 2.16M barrels injected in the 12 months reported through August 2025.
