Txl -D- #6 (API 42-135-11029) is a well in Ector County operated by Formentera Operations LLC, completed January 29, 2016 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 4, 2016, permitted to 4,640 ft.
It was permitted by Apache Corporation and has since transferred to Formentera Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Rustler, Seven Rivers, San Andres.
Its 2 leases have reported 16K barrels of oil and 70.9K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
