Sophia #5 (API 42-503-82538) is a plugged well in Young County, plugged December 18, 1997, last operated by Peterson Don Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 24, 2024, permitted to 3,700 ft.
It was permitted by Rogers Drilling CO., Inc. and has since transferred to Peterson Don Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Gunsight, Cisco, Palo Pinto, Strawn.
Its 2 leases have reported 109K barrels of oil and 35 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 6.45K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through November 2025; TexNet located 0 M2+ earthquakes within 10 km over the last two years.
