Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) in Wyoming: The Complete Guide by OilWell Cannabis
When you’re facing a cancer diagnosis in Cheyenne, managing chronic pain from ranch work outside Rock Springs, or struggling with PTSD after serving at F.E. Warren Air Force Base, you deserve honest answers about every option on the table—including cannabis. Here in Wyoming, where the nearest specialist might be a three-hour drive and winter storms can isolate you for days, accessible medicine isn’t a luxury; it’s survival. That’s why we created this guide. We don’t believe in selling hope. We believe in giving you the best possible version of the facts so you can decide what’s right for you.
Who Was Rick Simpson, and Why Does His Story Matter in Wyoming?
Rick Simpson wasn’t a doctor. He was a power engineer from Nova Scotia—a tradesman, not a scientist. In 1997, he fell from scaffolding at a hospital in Moncton and suffered a head injury that left him with relentless tinnitus and dizziness. The medications his doctors prescribed either didn’t work or made things worse. When he asked his physician about cannabis, the door was shut. Simpson found relief on his own, but his story took a radical turn in 2003 when he applied concentrated cannabis oil to three bumps on his arm that his doctor said were basal cell carcinoma. According to Simpson, the lesions disappeared in four days. No biopsy. No independent verification. Just his word. But that personal experience became the origin story of Rick Simpson Oil and sparked a global movement.
Important context: Simpson’s account is personal testimony, not medical evidence. The absence of clinical documentation means his story can’t be evaluated as scientific proof. But it is historically significant—it launched a worldwide conversation about concentrated cannabis oil that eventually reached Wyoming.
Simpson’s 2005 documentary, Run From The Cure, spread his message globally. He gave his oil away for free to cancer patients and others, claiming it could help with everything from chronic pain to diabetes, glaucoma, arthritis, depression, and insomnia. He was raided by Canadian police in 2005 and 2009, charged with cultivation and trafficking, and eventually left Canada for Europe. He published Phoenix Tears in 2012 and continued advocating that RSO could cure cancer, framing his work as a fight against institutional corruption.
In Wyoming, where we value self-reliance and skepticism toward centralized authority, Simpson’s story resonates. Many of our neighbors have faced similar frustration when the medical system fails them. But the truth matters more than a good story. Simpson had no medical training, never conducted a clinical trial, and never published peer-reviewed research. His evidence was anecdotal. That doesn’t make him a villain—it makes him human. But it also means his claims deserve honest scrutiny.
What Traditional RSO Actually Was
Traditional Rick Simpson Oil was a crude, single-strain extract—nothing like the standardized products you’re seeing today in Wyoming dispensaries or online. Understanding what it was helps you understand why modern formulations matter.
Source material: Simpson used high-THC indica strains with no standardization. Whatever he grew or sourced dictated the product. No consistency, no control.
Extraction method: He used naphtha (a petroleum-based solvent) or 99% isopropyl alcohol—neither food-grade. The process involved soaking plant material, filtering, and evaporating solvent in a rice cooker. This high heat destroyed most terpenes and fully decarboxylated THCa into delta-9 THC.
Appearance: Nearly black, thick, tar-like oil with a strong cannabis and possible solvent-residual smell.
Cannabinoid profile: THC-dominant (60-90% estimated), with minor cannabinoids present only at whatever natural ratios the plant provided. No lab testing, no COAs, no way to know what you were getting.
Terpenes: Effectively zero. The solvent and heat process stripped them all out.
Residual solvent risk: This is critical. Naphtha can contain benzene, toluene, and other carcinogens. Incomplete purging leaves toxic residues. Traditional RSO had no safety testing.
In Wyoming’s wide-open spaces, where DIY culture runs deep, some folks might be tempted to make RSO at home using Simpson’s method. We strongly advise against it. The solvent risks are real, and without lab testing, you can’t verify safety. That’s why we publish our open-source formulas using safe, modern ingredients—so you don’t have to gamble with your health.
Simpson’s 60-Gram Protocol: What He Recommended vs. What the Evidence Shows
Simpson’s core recommendation was a 90-day protocol consuming 60 grams of oil. Here’s the breakdown:
Week 1: Half a grain of rice-sized dose (10-15mg) three times daily.
Weeks 2-5: Double every four days until reaching 1 gram per day.
Weeks 5-12: Maintain 1 gram daily, divided into three doses.
He claimed patients would develop tolerance to THC’s psychoactive effects within 3-4 weeks and recommended nighttime dosing initially. He also suggested post-protocol maintenance of 1-2 grams per month.
Important context for Wyoming readers evaluating this protocol:
- No controlled trial has ever validated the 60-gram protocol for any condition.
- At peak dosing, patients consumed 600-900mg of delta-9 THC daily—far exceeding anything studied clinically. The FDA-approved synthetic THC drug dronabinol is typically dosed at 2.5-20mg per day.
- These doses carry serious risks: severe intoxication, anxiety, panic, tachycardia, hypotension, and cannabis use disorder. If you’re working on a ranch, operating heavy equipment in Gillette’s energy sector, or driving Wyoming’s long highways, impairment is a major safety concern.
- For Wyoming cancer patients, using unregulated oil in place of proven therapies like those offered at the Wyoming Cancer Center in Casper or Banner Wyoming Medical Center could cause irreversible harm.
What Simpson got right: He drew attention to cannabinoids as serious medicine when the world ignored them. His advocacy helped create the legal cannabis industry that now serves Wyoming residents.
What he overstated: Cancer cure claims exceed the evidence. Encouraging patients to use RSO instead of proven cancer therapies carries genuine harm potential. The preclinical literature shows THC and CBD can induce apoptosis and inhibit tumor growth in cell lines and animal models, but these findings have not translated to proven human cancer cures . The National Cancer Institute acknowledges anticancer research but does not endorse cannabis as a cancer treatment . The FDA has not approved any cannabis plant product for cancer.
Traditional RSO vs. Modern Formulated RSO: A Wyoming Perspective
| Dimension | Traditional RSO | OilWell Formulated RSO |
|---|---|---|
| Source material | Single high-THC indica strain | Multi-cannabinoid blend from multiple sources |
| Extraction method | Naphtha or isopropyl alcohol | Modern food-grade ethanol/CO₂ (but we use solvent-free blending) |
| Cannabinoid profile | THC-dominant, uncontrolled | Seven defined cannabinoids at specific ratios |
| Terpenes | Destroyed by heat | Live terpenes at 5% with seven defined terpenes |
| Standardization | None—every batch different | Lab-tested with 553mg/mL specific targets |
| Lab testing | Not available | Full panel: potency, terpenes, pesticides, heavy metals, residual solvents, microbial |
| Residual solvents | Significant risk with naphtha | Solvent-free production—zero risk |
| THCa preservation | No—fully decarboxylated | Yes—1,500mg THCa as separate ingredient |
| Dosing precision | Approximate syringe-based | Measured per mL with graduated dropper |
| Product formats | Single thick oil only | Sublingual oil and vape cartridge |
| Evidence approach | Anecdotal, personal testimony | Research-backed, evidence-weighted |
For Wyoming residents who need reliable, tested medicine—not guesswork—this comparison matters. When you’re hours from a medical center in Laramie or Cody, you can’t afford to wonder if your oil contains what the label claims. OilWell’s third-party testing provides the certainty traditional RSO never could.
Why OilWell’s Formulas Diverge from Traditional RSO: Five Evidence-Motivated Reasons
1. Multi-cannabinoid approach: Traditional RSO used whatever single strain was available. Our formula includes seven cannabinoids—CBD, CBG, delta-8 THC, THCa, delta-9 THC, CBN, and CBC—because the entourage-effect literature suggests potential benefit from cannabinoid diversity, even as robust clinical proof of whole-formula synergy remains limited [20][29].
2. Terpene preservation: Traditional RSO had no terpenes. We include live terpenes at 5% with limonene, myrcene, caryophyllene, pinene, linalool, humulene, and terpinolene. Each has its own evidence profile (see GENERAL KNOWLEDGE), and the entourage-effect literature provides theoretical framework for their inclusion [20][29].
3. THCa as separate ingredient: Traditional RSO converted all THCa to THC. Our sublingual formula preserves 1,500mg THCa because the THCa evidence suggests potentially relevant non-psychoactive bioactivity via COX-2 inhibition and PPARγ agonism that is lost when THCa converts to THC [12].
4. Reduced delta-9 THC dominance: Traditional RSO was 60-90% delta-9 THC. Our formula contains only 90mg delta-9 THC total (3mg/mL) while delivering 6,000mg delta-8 THC and distributing other cannabinoids across therapeutic ranges. This reflects broader cannabinoid research rather than single-compound dominance.
5. Product format innovation: Simpson had one crude format. We offer both sublingual oil (sustained relief, 15-45 minute onset, 4-6 hour duration) and vape cartridge (fast relief, 1-2 minute onset, 2-4 hour duration), acknowledging that different routes have different pharmacokinetic profiles [14].
The Decarboxylation Choice: Patient-Controlled Potency for Wyoming Lifestyles
Here’s where our formula truly innovates. Traditional RSO was always psychoactive. Our sublingual formula gives you three distinct options from one product:
Option 1: Raw (No Heat)
All 1,500mg stays as THCa—completely non-psychoactive. Use it during long workdays on the ranch, when driving Wyoming’s highways, or anytime you need therapeutic benefits without impairment. The THCa literature suggests anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective potential via COX-2 inhibition and PPARγ agonism [12].
Option 2: Fully Activated (Home Decarboxylation)
Heat the oil at 260°F for 45-60 minutes in an oven-safe glass container. This converts 1,500mg THCa into approximately 1,315mg delta-9 THC. Combined with the existing 90mg delta-9 THC, you get ~1,405mg total delta-9 THC—potency comparable to traditional illegal RSO, but 100% legal because you control the activation. You can decarb just a portion in a separate container and keep the rest raw.
Option 3: Vape (Auto-Decarboxylation)
Our 1-gram vape cartridge vaporizes at 400-450°F, instantly converting THCa to delta-9 THC with each puff. This is the fastest RSO delivery method available—perfect for breakthrough pain, panic attacks, or acute nausea.
The conversion math: 1mg THCa = 0.877mg delta-9 THC after decarboxylation (accounting for CO₂ loss).
For Wyoming residents who need to function at high altitude, operate machinery, or maintain family responsibilities, this flexibility is revolutionary. You decide when and how to activate your medicine—not the product.
Solvent-Free Production: Safety You Can Verify
Traditional RSO’s biggest safety flaw was residual solvents. Naphtha and isopropyl alcohol aren’t food-grade, and incomplete purging leaves toxic residues.
Our production is completely different. We don’t extract—we formulate. We blend individual cannabinoid distillates and isolates in a controlled environment. No naphtha. No butane. No solvents. Period.
Carrier: Organic MCT oil (medium-chain triglycerides)—food-grade, neutral taste, facilitates sublingual absorption.
Testing: Every batch undergoes third-party lab analysis covering:
- Cannabinoid potency (HPLC/UHPLC, ±2% accuracy)
- Terpene profile
- 400+ pesticides (LC-MS/MS, GC-MS/MS)
- Heavy metals (ICP-MS: arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury)
- Residual solvents (headspace GC, FDA Class 3 limits)
- Microbial contaminants (E. coli, Salmonella, Aspergillus)
Certificates of Analysis (COAs) are available on our website and included with every shipment to Wyoming. When you’re ordering from a remote cabin near Dubois or a ranch outside Pinedale, you need to know what’s in your bottle. We prove it.
The OilWell Origin Story: From Bentley’s Miracle to Wyoming’s Medicine
OilWell Cannabis didn’t start in a boardroom. It started with a dog named Bentley. In McAllen, Texas—across from Reynosa, Mexico, in one of the most dangerous border regions—Colin Valencia faced a choice no pet owner wants: euthanasia for his paralyzed companion. Vets said Bentley’s pain meds would destroy his organs. The humane option was to let him go.
But giving up wasn’t in Colin’s DNA. Growing up in the Borderplex, he’d seen friends killed and imprisoned. He’d left home at sixteen. He’d chosen cannabis over darker paths and learned the plant deeply in the traditional, pre-legalization world. A rescue worker named Jessica asked the question that changed everything: “You’ve moved how many tons of weed and you’ve never heard of CBD?”
Colin created a CBD golden paste for Bentley. The result was miraculous. From paralyzed and facing death, Bentley got up and brought Colin his ball to play. Dogs don’t respond to placebo. This was real cannabinoid medicine succeeding where pharmaceuticals failed.
Bentley lived ten more years, dying naturally at age twenty. During that decade, Colin developed specialized formulas for every age-related condition:
- Neurodegeneration → CBG’s neuroprotective properties and THCa’s PPARγ agonism
- Dementia → CBC’s role in neurogenesis
- Glaucoma → THC’s CB1 agonism for intraocular pressure
- Arthritis → Multi-pathway anti-inflammation using CBD, CBG, THCa, and beta-caryophyllene
Single cannabinoids weren’t enough. Bentley’s journey taught Colin that real therapeutic impact requires precision multi-cannabinoid synergy. That lesson—born from love, not theory—is the foundation of every OilWell formula, including the one now available to Wyoming residents.
Colin’s Personal Battle: PTSD, Benzo Addiction, and the Peace Formula
Colin knows pharmaceutical dependence personally. He struggled with severe PTSD and Xanax addiction. When he decided to quit benzos cold turkey—a notoriously dangerous feat—he used the same cannabinoid knowledge that kept Bentley alive.
The Peace Gummies formula was created during midnight experiments in the depths of benzo withdrawal. Colin personally uses the vape form to manage his insomnia and severe PTSD daily. This isn’t theoretical knowledge from a textbook. It’s survival experience from someone who lived through what many Wyoming veterans and trauma survivors face.
Wyoming has one of the highest per-capita veteran populations in America. Many served in combat zones. Many struggle with PTSD, chronic pain, and the same benzo cycles Colin broke free from. When we say these products work, we’re speaking from experience that mirrors yours.
ABC13 Houston: Seven Features, Four Years, One Voice
Between 2019 and 2023, ABC13 Houston featured Colin and OilWell in seven comprehensive news segments. Five different reporters—Tom Abrahams, Steve Campion, Shelley Childers, Nick Natario, and KTRK staff—sought Colin as the primary cannabis expert for America’s fourth-largest city.
What this means for Wyoming: Mainstream media validation from a major ABC affiliate is a credibility signal that transcends geography. When you’re ordering from Powell or Sheridan, you can trust that OilWell has been independently vetted by professional journalists over four years—not just marketing hype.
The media record shows five consistent themes:
- Consistency across years — From 2019’s CBD boom through 2023’s 4/20 special, ABC13 returned to Colin repeatedly
- Breadth of expertise — Business, law, medicine, community health, politics
- Community action — $35,000 in product donated for COVID vaccination, proactive Delta-8 removal to protect customers
- Personal stakes — Colin’s own marijuana conviction history revealed in 2022, making every quote more authentic
- Evolution of language — From “local wholesaler” to industry authority
These features cannot be purchased. They can only be earned.
Our Farm Bill Compliance: Legal Access for Wyoming
Wyoming’s cannabis laws are among the strictest in America. There’s no medical marijuana program. Possession of any amount is a misdemeanor. But our RSO products are legal under the 2018 Farm Bill because they contain less than 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight.
The breakdown: Our 30mL sublingual oil contains only 90mg delta-9 THC total—3mg per mL. All cannabinoids are hemp-derived. This meets federal law and Wyoming’s interpretation of hemp products.
The THCa framework: We include 1,500mg THCa, the non-psychoactive precursor. THCa is Farm Bill compliant at point of sale. You legally purchase, possess, and transport it. Only when you choose to heat it at 260°F for 45-60 minutes does it convert to ~1,315mg delta-9 THC. This legal distinction is the most significant innovation in cannabis accessibility history—backed by chemistry, not loopholes.
Wyoming-specific legal notice: Wyoming law enforcement may not be familiar with THCa distinctions. We provide full documentation, COAs, and receipts with every order. If you live in a jurisdiction with stricter interpretation, understand the conversion chemistry before activating. Customers assume all legal responsibility for decarboxylation decisions.

Condition-Specific Guidance for Wyoming Residents
Critical disclaimer: This information is educational, not medical advice. Our products are not FDA-approved to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Always consult your healthcare provider—especially if you’re receiving treatment at Wyoming Medical Center, Cheyenne Regional Medical Center, or any facility. Do not operate vehicles or machinery while impaired.
Chemotherapy Support (for patients at Wyoming Cancer Center, Casper)
Pre-chemo: 0.5-1.0mL sublingual 1 hour before treatment to address anticipatory nausea.
Breakthrough nausea: 2-3 vape puffs for immediate relief (1-2 minute onset).
Post-chemo: 0.5mL sublingual every 6 hours as needed.
Sleep: 1.0-2.0mL sublingual before bed (delivers 25-50mg CBN).
Evidence: Delta-8 THC shows antiemetic potential [9]. Delta-9 THC is established for chemo-related nausea [1][13]. CBD provides anxiolytic buffering [3].
Chronic Pain (fibromyalgia, arthritis from ranch work, neuropathy)
Daytime: 0.3-0.5mL raw sublingual for anti-inflammatory benefits without impairment—critical for operating machinery or vehicles on Wyoming’s vast properties.
Nighttime: 0.5-1.0mL decarboxylated sublingual for full-spectrum relief plus CBN sleep support.
Breakthrough: Vape as needed for rapid onset during acute flare-ups.
Evidence: CBD shows pain-modulating potential [4]. Delta-9 THC has analgesic effects [13]. Beta-caryophyllene activates CB2 receptors for inflammation [24]. THCa inhibits COX-2 [12].
Sleep Disorders (common in Wyoming’s high-altitude, dark winter months)
Before bed: 1.0-2.0mL sublingual.
- At 2.0mL, you receive 50mg CBN—the dosage level investigated in 2024 sleep literature.
- At 1.0mL, you receive 25mg CBN, above the 20mg threshold associated with reduced sleep disturbance.
Evidence: CBN sleep evidence remains emerging but shows promise [16][17]. Cannabis sleep literature overall requires better trials [17].
Anxiety & PTSD (especially for Wyoming veterans)
Daytime functional relief: 0.3mL raw sublingual—CBD and CBG address anxiety pathways without psychoactive impairment, perfect for work at F.E. Warren AFB or in Cheyenne’s state offices.
Nighttime: 1.0mL sublingual—full profile including CBN for sleep architecture.
Evidence: CBD shows anxiolytic effects in systematic reviews [3]. CBG pharmacology is promising but less clinically established [7][8]. Limonene may enhance mood via entourage effects [20].
General Titration Principle for Wyoming Users
Start low, go slow. Wyoming’s high altitude and lower oxygen can affect metabolism. Begin with 0.25-0.5mL sublingual and assess effects over 2-3 hours before increasing. Individual responses vary based on body weight, metabolism, tolerance, and concurrent medications.

The Evidence: What Science Actually Says
Our GENERAL KNOWLEDGE section contains 29 peer-reviewed citations evaluating every compound in our formulas. Here’s the honest summary:
Strongest human evidence:
- CBD for rare epilepsies [1][2]
- Delta-9 THC for chemo nausea and HIV/AIDS appetite [1][13]
Promising but limited:
- CBD for anxiety (2024 meta-analysis shows signal but small sample) [3]
- CBD for pain (heterogeneous trials, modest benefit) [4]
- Delta-8 THC antiemetic potential (mostly preclinical) [9]
Emerging, not proven:
- CBG neuroprotection (preclinical, commercialized before human proof) [7][8]
- CBN for sleep (no validated human trials) [16][17]
- CBC neurogenesis (preclinical, commercially available but clinically immature) [18][19]
Terpenes:
- Beta-caryophyllene is a CB2 agonist (mechanistically interesting, limited human data) [24]
- Limonene, myrcene, pinene, linalool show preclinical bioactivity but lack robust human trials [20]-[28]
- Entourage effect is plausible but not clinically proven in humans [20][29]
Safety concerns:
- High-concentration delta-9 THC linked to psychosis, cannabis use disorder, anxiety, depression [15]
- CBD can elevate liver enzymes and cause drug interactions [6]
- Delta-8 THC has manufacturing quality concerns [10][11]
- Product quality matters as much as molecule identity [1][14]
We present this evidence hierarchy not to diminish our product, but to earn your trust. Every cannabinoid and terpene in our formula has a specific rationale grounded in the literature, and we refuse to overstate what that literature supports.
Common Overstatements We Avoid (That Wyoming Competitors Make)
- “CBN is a proven sleep aid” → More accurate: evidence remains weak, no validated trials [16][17]
- “Myrcene makes you sleepy” → More accurate: preclinical only, limited human proof [20][23]
- “Terpenes have proven entourage effects” → More accurate: plausible but not clinically proven [20][29]
- “THCa is always non-psychoactive” → More accurate: converts to THC with heat, changing exposure [12]
- “Delta-8 THC is safe because it’s hemp-derived” → More accurate: psychoactive, less characterized than delta-9, quality concerns [9]-[11]
How Our Formulas Connect to the Evidence
Every cannabinoid and terpene in our RSO formulas is included because the scientific literature suggests potential benefit—even if that literature is still developing. We don’t hide behind proprietary blends. We show you exactly what’s inside and connect it to the research:
- 4,500mg CBD → Grounded in the strongest human evidence for seizures and emerging data for anxiety/pain [1]-[6]
- 3,000mg CBG → Inspired by preclinical neuroprotection research [7][8] and Bentley’s age-related cognitive decline
- 6,000mg Delta-8 THC → Included for antiemetic potential [9] and balanced psychoactivity vs. delta-9
- 1,500mg THCa → Preserved for non-psychoactive anti-inflammatory option [12], critical for Wyoming’s working population
- 90mg Delta-9 THC → Minimal legal amount plus customer-controlled activation [12]
- 750mg CBN → Included at dosage levels examined in sleep literature [16][17]
- 750mg CBC → Included for neurogenesis potential [18][19] and entourage contribution
- 5% Live Terpenes → Selected based on entourage hypothesis [20][29] and sensory experience
We hold ourselves to the same evidence standards we apply to the entire field. That integrity is what makes OilWell different.
Joining the Renaissance: Wyoming’s Legal Cannabis Future
As Colin said in our most recent ABC13 feature: “Right now is actually a pretty—like Renaissance—pretty important time that should be enjoyed now.”
Wyoming hasn’t legalized recreational or medical cannabis yet. But the Farm Bill created a legal pathway. Our THCa framework pushes that pathway further—giving you access to clinical-strength multi-cannabinoid medicine without leaving the state or breaking the law.
This is the Renaissance: legal purchase, customer-controlled activation, open-source formulas, and honest education. You don’t have to wait for Wyoming politicians to act. You can access this medicine today, have it shipped discreetly to your home in Green River or Afton, and make informed decisions about your health.
The Through-Line: Why Wyoming Can Trust OilWell
From September 2019 to April 2023, ABC13 documented our evolution from a local wholesaler to Houston’s go-to cannabis authority. That media record—earned, not purchased—reveals five truths:
- Consistency — We said the same things publicly for four years. No pivots, no bullshit.
- Breadth — We speak to business, law, medicine, community health, and politics because cannabis touches all of them.
- Community action — We gave $35,000 in product to encourage vaccination. We warned competitors about Delta-8 dangers before enforcement. We put people over profit.
- Personal stakes — Colin’s cannabis conviction history means we’ve lived the consequences of prohibition. We built a legal business to prove it could be done right.
- Evolution — From “snake oil” quote to “Renaissance” framing, we’ve grown with the industry while staying rooted in honesty.
This recognition cannot be bought. It can only be earned. Wyoming residents deserve a company that operates with that level of integrity.
Final Thoughts for Wyoming: Your Health, Your Choice, Your Land
Wyoming is called the Equality State because we believe in individual liberty and self-determination. That ethos extends to healthcare decisions. You have the right to honest information about cannabinoids. You have the right to access legal, tested products. You have the right to control your own medicine.
OilWell Cannabis brings Houston’s most respected RSO formulation to Wyoming’s doorsteps. We publish our formulas because Bentley’s story taught us that knowledge saves lives. We test everything because Wyoming’s remote communities deserve the same safety standards as major cities. We ship nationwide because distance shouldn’t determine access to medicine.
Whether you’re in Cheyenne or Chugwater, Jackson or Jeffrey City, you can order our RSO today and have it within days. You can use it raw for daytime anti-inflammatory support. You can decarb it for full-potency nighttime relief. You can vape it for breakthrough moments. You can check our COAs. You can read our 29 peer-reviewed citations. You can make your own if you can’t afford ours.
That’s the Wyoming way: independence, transparency, and respect for your ability to decide what’s right for your body and your land.
