WELL · 42-013-34009 · DISTRICT 1
Richter #5
Atascosa County · Fashing (Edwards Lime -B-) field · Vertical
Richter #5 (API 42-013-34009) is a well in Atascosa County operated by Eex Corporation, completed December 8, 1993.
The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits (amended once) between 1993 and 2016, permitted to 12,500 ft.
It was permitted by Viceroy Petroleum, LP and has since transferred to Eex Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Austin Chalk, Eagle Ford, Buda, Del Rio.
Its 4 leases have reported 98.9K barrels of oil and 1M mcf of gas since December 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Viceroy Petroleum, LP; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
