Bastrop County · Serbin (Taylor Sand) field · Producing · Vertical
Richter Emil #1 (API 42-021-31059) is a well in Bastrop County operated by Skytop Oil & Gas, completed August 10, 1987 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 7, 1987, permitted to 5,700 ft.
It was permitted by Triple J Investments Inc. and has since transferred to Skytop Oil & Gas on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Midway, Navarro, Taylor.
Its lease has reported 17.1K barrels of oil and 99.1K 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.
