Houston Gas Unit #6 (API 42-215-32340) is a well in Hidalgo County operated by BP America Production Company, completed June 21, 2002.

The RRC has issued 7 drilling permits (amended once) between 1996 and 2017, permitted to 12,000 ft.

It was permitted by Wagner Oil Company and has since transferred to BP America Production Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Frio, Jancik, Morin, Knapp.

Its 7 leases have reported 2.42K barrels of oil and 2.89M mcf of gas since December 1996, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
