Bennett Ranch Unit #5351 (API 42-501-33101) is a well in Yoakum County operated by Occidental Permian Ltd., completed March 31, 1987.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 8, 1986, permitted to 5,300 ft.

It was permitted by Shell Western E&P Inc. and has since transferred to Occidental Permian Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 9 formation tops, including Red Beds, Santa Rosa, Rustler, Tansill.

Its lease has reported 50.3M barrels of oil and 51.5M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 607 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 335K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through September 2025.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
