Richardson O. T. 65 #1 (API 42-415-33626) is a well in Scurry County operated by Cazador Operating LLC, completed December 10, 1997.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 25, 1997, permitted to 7,900 ft.

It was permitted by Baytech, Inc. and has since transferred to Cazador Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Vale, Wolfcamp, Canyon, Strawn.

Its 2 leases have reported 103K barrels of oil and 205K mcf of gas since December 1997, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 18 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.
