Eppes Fred R. #9 (API 42-161-32144) is a well in Freestone County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed March 1, 2006 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 10, 2001, permitted to 12,930 ft.
It was permitted by Xto Energy Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including BMA, Pettit, Travis Peak, Cotton Valley.
Its 3 leases have reported 29 barrels of oil and 4.1M mcf of gas since November 2001, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
