Guest, the phrase itself does not really make good grammatical sense-- could you supply the whole contextual sentence so that we can have a better perspective?

Equation (5), on the other hand, is fully well-formed, precisely because such a value is provided prior to the construction of the main predicate.

Yipes! Math.
Yes, the hyphen is needed, so that we can understand the subordination of 'well' to 'fully'.
Logically, however, it leaves much to be desired. Why not 'perfectly-formed'? What else could 'fully well' mean?
