Votaw #6 (API 42-127-32783) is a plugged well in Dimmit County, plugged December 10, 2015, last operated by L & J Exploration LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 28, 1987, permitted to 4,000 ft.

It was permitted by Jamin Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to L & J Exploration LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Carrizo, Olmos.

Its 4 leases have reported 40.6K barrels of oil and 147K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2020. The leases carry 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
