Richardson Ranch Unit #1H (API 42-041-32042) is a horizontal well in Brazos County operated by Wildfire Energy Operating LLC, completed May 23, 2010 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued February 23, 2010, permitted to 8,600 ft.
It was permitted by Unit Petroleum Company and has since transferred to Wildfire Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Austin Chalk, Woodbine.
Its lease has reported 291K barrels of oil and 415K mcf of gas since May 2010, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
