Thomas 5 #105 (API 42-483-31353) is a plugged well in Wheeler County, plugged August 31, 2015, last operated by Enervest Operating L.L.C..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued January 6, 1988, permitted to 12,500 ft.

It was permitted by Gifford Operating Company and has since transferred to Enervest Operating L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Brown Dolomite, Pennsylvanian, Base Hebner, B/Hebner.

Its 2 leases have reported 20.7K barrels of oil and 535K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in November 2017. The leases carry 2 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.
