Garza County · P. H. D. field · Vertical
Richardson Unit #6W (API 42-169-32888) is a well in Garza County operated by Cholla Petroleum Inc., completed December 4, 1988.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 14, 1988, permitted to 3,800 ft.
It was permitted by Bhp Petroleum (Americas) Inc. and has since transferred to Cholla Petroleum Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including San Andres.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.62M barrels of oil and 261K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 83 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 107K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through May 2025.
