Witherspoon -B- #6 (API 42-507-32566) is a plugged well in Zavala County, plugged November 16, 2012, last operated by Witherspoon Oil Company.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 4, 1997, permitted to 3,000 ft.

It was permitted by O.G.P. Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to Witherspoon Oil Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Olmos, San Miguel.

Its lease has reported 11.5K barrels of oil and 18 mcf of gas since March 1997, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 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.
