Jack County · Jacksboro S. (1975) field · Vertical
Richards -472- #8 (API 42-237-32226) is a disposal or injection well in Jack County operated by Mitchell Energy Corporation under an active UIC permit.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 13, 1978, permitted to 2,200 ft.
It was permitted by Southwestern Gas Pipeline Inc. and has since transferred to Mitchell Energy Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 150K barrels of oil and 18.4K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 25 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
Operator of record
