Richards -472- #9 (API 42-237-32333) is a well in Jack County operated by Mitchell Energy Corporation, completed August 28, 1978.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 3, 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.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
