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.

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