Galan #1 (API 42-163-32634) is a plugged horizontal well in Frio County, plugged May 26, 2016, last operated by C6 Operating L.L.C..
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1990 and 2011, permitted to 6,600 ft.
It was permitted by Ambassador Petroleum, Inc. and has since transferred to C6 Operating L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Austin Chalk, Ac.
Its 2 leases have reported 22.4K barrels of oil and 1.2K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
