Herring-Nivens #6
Hutchinson County · Panhandle Hutchinson County Fld. field · Vertical
Herring-Nivens #6 (API 42-233-31035) is a well in Hutchinson County operated by Four N Oil Company, completed October 22, 1981.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 18, 1981, permitted to 3,400 ft.
It was permitted by Western States Pet. Dev. Inc. and has since transferred to Four N Oil Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 13.3K barrels of oil and 328K 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.
