Horton Ballard #6 (API 42-311-32425) is a well in Mcmullen County operated by Gtg Operating LLC, completed February 1, 1986.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 30, 1985, permitted to 9,900 ft.
It was permitted by Pentad Development Corp. (A) and has since transferred to Gtg Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 513K barrels of oil and 525K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 11 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
