Stephens County · Plumb (Ranger Lower) field · Injection · Vertical
Whitfield-Gaeton #6 (API 42-429-35089) is a well in Stephens County operated by E.C. Hindman Oil And Gas, completed May 25, 2002 and listed as injection on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 15, 1988, permitted to 4,500 ft.
It was permitted by Gaeton Oil & Gas Corp. and has since transferred to E.C. Hindman Oil And Gas on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Palo Pinto, Gardner Sd, Caddo, Lake Sand.
Its lease has reported 17.2K barrels of oil and 494K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 4.38K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through May 2025.
