Brazoria County · Pledger (Miocene 4700) field · Shut In-Multi-Compl · Vertical
Mcfarland Robert ET AL #6 (API 42-039-31460) is a well in Brazoria County operated by Texas Petroleum Investment CO., completed October 10, 1979 and listed as shut in-multi-compl on the RRC schedule, shut in November 1, 2009.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 9, 1979, permitted to 7,165 ft.
It was permitted by Pennzoil Producing CO. and has since transferred to Texas Petroleum Investment CO. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 264K barrels of oil and 384K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
