Kirkland And Kirkland #5 (API 42-499-31563) is a well in Wood County operated by Atlas Operating LLC, completed November 25, 1987 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 10, 1987, permitted to 6,500 ft.
It was permitted by Shell Western E&P Inc. and has since transferred to Atlas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Nacatoch, Ector Chalk, Woodbine, Paluxy.
Its lease has reported 49.1K barrels of oil and 15K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
