OilWell Cannabis in Houston, Texas: Your Legal THCa Rick Simpson Oil with 16,590mg of 7-Cannabinoid RSO, ABC13-Featured & Founded from a Paralyzed Dog’s 10-Year Miracle, Delivered Nationwide in North America

A New Era of Rick Simpson Oil for North America: The OilWell Cannabis Formula

Welcome to the most comprehensive guide to modern Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) available in North America. We are OilWell Cannabis, a Houston-based company built from a story of rescue, rigorous science, and a commitment to honest, accessible cannabinoid medicine. This is not a sales pitch—it’s an education. For everyone in North America, from cancer patients in Ontario seeking supportive care to chronic pain sufferers in California, veterans in Texas managing PTSD, or the simply curious in New York, we are here to separate the hype from the life-saving potential of modern, formulated RSO.

Rick Simpson’s story—a blue-collar worker from Nova Scotia who claimed concentrated cannabis oil cured his skin cancer—ignited a global movement. It also left behind a legacy of unverified claims, unsafe production methods, and immense hope untethered from science. At OilWell, we honor that legacy by evolving it. We’ve taken the core concept of RSO—a potent, full-spectrum cannabis extract—and rebuilt it for the modern era with lab-tested precision, multi-cannabinoid synergy, and an uncompromising focus on your safety and autonomy.

If you are in North America navigating a complex landscape of state-by-state legality, confusing product labels, and conflicting information, this guide is your anchor. We provide the facts, the research, the formulas, and the framework to make an informed decision for yourself.

The Rick Simpson Legacy: Understanding the Origin Story

Rick Simpson was not a doctor. He was a maintenance worker whose personal suffering and distrust of conventional medicine led him to cannabis oil. Following a head injury in 1997 and ineffective pharmaceutical treatments, he turned to cannabis for relief. His pivotal moment came in 2003 when he applied homemade cannabis oil to what he said were basal cell carcinoma lesions on his arm, reporting they disappeared within days.

This personal testimony, documented in the 2005 film Run From The Cure, became the catalyst for the global RSO movement. Simpson began producing oil using high-THC indica strains, extracting with solvents like naphtha or isopropyl alcohol, and giving it away for free following a strict 60-gram, 90-day oral protocol he claimed could cure cancer.

It is critical to understand what this story is and is not. Simpson’s account is historically significant personal testimony—a powerful narrative that sparked advocacy and awareness. It is not, however, medical evidence. No biopsies, independent verification, or peer-reviewed clinical trials ever validated his specific cure claims. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) acknowledges preclinical cannabinoid research but does not endorse cannabis as a cancer treatment. The FDA has not approved any cannabis plant product for curing cancer.

Simpson’s traditional method produced a crude, tar-like oil that was fully psychoactive (all THCa converted to THC), stripped of terpenes by the high-heat process, and carried real risks from un-purged toxic solvents. Every batch was different, with no lab testing or standardization. This is the RSO of history—a product of passion born in a pre-legalization, pre-scientific era.

Why Modern RSO Had to Evolve: From Tradition to Precision

The leap from Rick Simpson’s garage to a lab-tested, pharmaceutical-grade product is not just an improvement—it’s a necessity for safety and efficacy. The table below illustrates the fundamental evolution.

Our philosophy at OilWell is built on four pillars that directly address the gaps in traditional RSO, especially for North American consumers facing diverse legal and health landscapes:

1. Accessibility Over Gatekeeping: No medical card is required. We ship across the United States and internationally where compliant.
2. Patient-Controlled Potency: Our formula includes 1,500mg of THCa. You choose: use it raw for non-psychoactive benefits or heat it to convert to THC for full potency.
3. Open-Source Transparency: We publish our complete formulas. If you cannot afford our product, you can see exactly how to make your own.
4. Evidence-Informed Formulation: Every cannabinoid and terpene in our blend is chosen based on the existing scientific literature, not marketing trends.

The OilWell Origin Story: From a Paralyzed Dog to Pharmaceutical Precision

Our company was not founded in a boardroom. It was founded on the floor of a Houston apartment beside a paralyzed dog named Bentley, who was facing euthanasia. When conventional veterinary medicine had no answers, our founder Colin Valencia—a software engineer with a background in custom development for Baylor College of Medicine—discovered CBD. Through relentless formulation, he created a CBD golden paste that did what pharmaceuticals could not: Bentley got up and walked.

This was not placebo. Dogs don’t respond to placebo. It was cannabinoid medicine working.

Bentley lived another decade, and during those years, Colin developed targeted formulas for his age-related conditions: CBG for neuroprotection, THCa for brain-cell inflammation, CBC for neurogenesis. He learned that single cannabinoids were insufficient for complex conditions; a synergistic, multi-cannabinoid approach was necessary.

Colin also understands pharmaceutical dependence personally, having used his cannabinoid knowledge to break free from Xanax addiction during severe PTSD. The formulas we create are born from this lived experience—a decade of real-world R&D driven by necessity and love.

The OilWell RSO Formula: A Symphony of Seven Cannabinoids

Traditional RSO was a solo performance—overwhelmingly delta-9 THC. Modern science suggests a symphonic approach is more effective. Our RSO Sublingual Oil is a precisely orchestrated blend of seven cannabinoids, each selected for its unique evidence profile and role in the “entourage effect.”

The Complete RSO Sublingual Oil Formula:

• CBD: 4,500mg. The most evidence-backed non-intoxicating cannabinoid, with strong human data for seizure disorders and emerging research for anxiety and inflammation.
• CBG: 3,000mg. A promising neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory precursor cannabinoid, though human clinical data is still developing.
• Delta-8 THC: 6,000mg. A psychoactive cannabinoid with similar but less potent effects than delta-9 THC, offering an alternative pathway for relief.
• THCa: 1,500mg. The raw, non-psychoactive precursor. It may offer anti-inflammatory benefits on its own and converts to ~1,315mg delta-9 THC if heated by the user.
• Delta-9 THC: 90mg. Kept under the 0.3% Farm Bill limit for federal compliance. Provides the established therapeutic benefits of THC at a controlled level.
• CBN: 750mg. Often marketed for sleep; the evidence is preliminary but promising, and it is included here at a meaningful dose.
• CBC: 750mg. An emerging minor cannabinoid with intriguing preclinical anti-inflammatory and neurogenic properties.
• Total Cannabinoids: 16,590mg per 30mL bottle (553mg/mL).
• Live Terpenes (5%): Limonene (citrus, mood), Myrcene, Caryophyllene (pepper, CB2 agonist), Pinene (forest, clarity), Linalool (lavender, calm), Humulene (earthy), Terpinolene (piney).

This is not a random mix. It’s a formulation built from the ground up to leverage the distinct and potentially complementary activities of each compound, moving far beyond the one-note approach of the past.

The Legal Framework: THCa and Farm Bill Compliance

For North American consumers, legality is paramount. Our product is made possible by the 2018 U.S. Farm Bill and its definition of legal hemp: any Cannabis sativa plant containing less than 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight.

Our entire 30mL bottle contains only 90mg of delta-9 THC—well under the 0.3% threshold. The 1,500mg of THCa is legally distinct; it is not delta-9 THC until it is decarboxylated (heated). This creates a paradigm-shifting legal pathway:

• You purchase and possess a legal hemp product.
• You decide in the privacy of your home whether to use it raw (non-psychoactive) or heat it to activate the THCa into THC (psychoactive).
• This patient-controlled potency aligns with the spirit of patient autonomy that Rick Simpson advocated for, but achieves it through precise chemistry and federal legal compliance.

Important Legal Notice: It is the buyer’s responsibility to understand and comply with local laws. While federal hemp law provides a framework, state and international laws vary. We ship with full documentation and Certificates of Analysis.

Solvent-Free Production and Uncompromising Safety

We do not use naphtha, isopropyl alcohol, or any extraction solvents in our RSO. Instead, we formulate by blending pure, individual cannabinoid distillates and isolates into an organic MCT oil base. This eliminates the single greatest safety risk of traditional RSO: residual toxic solvents.

Every batch is verified by third-party laboratories for:

• Cannabinoid Potency
• Terpene Profile
• Pesticides
• Heavy Metals (Arsenic, Cadmium, Lead, Mercury)
• Residual Solvents
• Microbial Contaminants

A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is available for every product. This level of transparency and safety testing was unimaginable in Rick Simpson’s time, but it is the non-negotiable standard for any medicine in North America today.

How to Use OilWell RSO: Formats and Guidance

We offer two distinct formats to match different needs and lifestyles across North America.

1. RSO Sublingual Oil ($129.99)

• Best for: Sustained relief, precise dosing, nighttime use, overall systemic support.
• 30mL bottle with graduated dropper.
• Onset: 15-45 minutes. Duration: 4-6 hours.
• Take sublingually (under the tongue) for optimal absorption.

2. RSO Vape Cartridge ($49.99)

• Best for: Fast, acute relief from breakthrough pain, nausea, or panic.
• 1-gram cartridge, 510-thread compatible.
• Onset: 1-2 minutes. Duration: 2-4 hours.
• Vaping temperatures instantly decarboxylate THCa, making it immediately psychoactive.

Condition-Specific Context & General Dosing Principle

We are not doctors. This is not medical advice. Consult your healthcare provider. The following is educational context based on cannabinoid research.

• Chronic Pain & Inflammation: The multi-cannabinoid approach targets multiple pathways. CBD and CBG offer non-psychoactive anti-inflammatory action. The raw THCa option allows for daytime use without impairment. Start with 0.25mL sublingual.
• Sleep Support: Our formula delivers 25mg of CBN per 1mL—a dose studied in sleep research. The synergistic effect of CBN, CBD, and calming terpenes like linalool and myrcene may support better sleep architecture. 1-2mL sublingual before bed.
• Stress & Anxiety: CBD and CBG have the most relevant anxiolytic research. Using the oil in its raw (non-decarbed) form provides these benefits without psychoactivity, suitable for daytime management.
• Nausea & Appetite Support: Delta-8 and delta-9 THC have well-established antiemetic properties. The vape cartridge offers near-instant relief for acute nausea.

The Universal Rule: Start Low, Go Slow. Begin with 0.25mL of sublingual oil. Wait 2-3 hours. Assess your response. Incrementally increase as needed. Your ideal dose is personal.

For the DIY Community: Our Open-Source Commitment

Rick Simpson gave his oil away for free and taught others to make it. In that spirit, we publish our complete formulas. The table above is your recipe. If you have the skill and resources to source quality cannabinoid distillates, you can create this formulation yourself. We believe education and accessibility should always win over proprietary secrecy.
