Shelly #6 (API 42-225-31305) is a well in Houston County operated by Empire Texas Operating LLC, completed January 30, 2014 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 20, 2013, permitted to 10,615 ft.
It was permitted by Treadstone Energy Partners, LLC and has since transferred to Empire Texas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Fort Trinidad, East (Buda), Fort Trinidad, East (Georgetown), Ft. Trinidad, Se. (Edwards).
Its lease has reported 1.71M barrels of oil and 2.09M mcf of gas since March 2006, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 18 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
