Jasper County · Buna North (Yegua #6) field · Partial Plug · Vertical
Richardson Hardy #5 (API 42-241-00173) is a well in Jasper County operated by H.E.R. Operating LLC, completed May 18, 1975 and listed as partial plug on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 6, 1995, permitted to 7,250 ft.
It was permitted by Anderson Producing, Inc and has since transferred to H.E.R. Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.9K barrels of oil and 259K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
