Richter Louis #88
Ward County · Ward-Estes North field · Shut In · Vertical
Richter Louis #88 (API 42-475-32028) is a well in Ward County operated by Crescent Energy Operating LLC, completed October 27, 1987 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in August 1, 2004.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 16, 1980, permitted to 2,674 ft.
It was permitted by MR Oil Company and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Yates.
Its lease has reported 192K barrels of oil and 188K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in January 2026. The lease carries 40 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
Operator of record
Permitted by Mr Oil Company; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
