Rusk County · Minden E. (Travis Peak Trans.) field · Vertical
Jones W. J. #6 (API 42-401-32071) is a well in Rusk County operated by Arcadia Expl. & Prod. Company, completed February 12, 1986.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1985 and 2012, permitted to 8,000 ft.
It was permitted by Lancer Petroleum Corporation and has since transferred to Arcadia Expl. & Prod. Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Austin Chalk, B.M.A., BMA, B Massive.
Its 4 leases have reported 50.9K barrels of oil and 279K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
