Crouch Alby #6 (API 42-173-31700) is a plugged well in Glasscock County, plugged December 18, 2003, last operated by Phillips Water Hauling Inc..
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1984 and 2013, permitted to 8,550 ft.
It was permitted by Phillips, Bob and has since transferred to Phillips Water Hauling Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 12 formation tops, including Cretaceous, Clear Fork, Spraberry, Dean.
Its 2 leases have reported 188K barrels of oil and 759K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 10 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 6.98M barrels injected in the 12 months reported through January 2026.
