Richter Louis #81 (API 42-475-34629) is a well in Ward County operated by Crescent Energy Operating LLC, completed November 1, 2004 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 22, 2000, permitted to 7,000 ft.
It was permitted by MR Oil Company and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Yates, Queen, Quees, San Andres.
Its lease has reported 130K barrels of oil and 1.07M mcf of gas since March 2000, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
