Part I

Item 1. Business

General

Southwest Royalties, Inc. Income Fund VI (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") was organized as a Tennessee limited partnership on December 4, 1986. The offering of limited partnership interests began August 25, 1986, reached minimum capital requirements on October 3, 1986 and concluded January 29, 1987. The Partnership has no subsidiaries. The Managing General Partner of the Partnership is Southwest Royalties, Inc. (the “Managing General Partner”), a Delaware corporation.

The Partnership has expended its capital and acquired interests in producing oil and gas properties. After such acquisitions, the Partnership has produced and marketed the crude oil and natural gas produced from such properties. In most cases, the Partnership purchased royalty or overriding royalty interests and working interests in oil and gas properties that were converted into net profits interests or other nonoperating interests. The Partnership purchased either all or part of the rights and obligations under various oil and gas leases.

During 2004, the Managing General Partner was acquired by Clayton Williams Energy, Inc. (“CWEI”), a Delaware corporation, and is now a wholly owned subsidiary of CWEI. CWEI is an oil and gas company based in Midland, Texas, and its common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market’s Global Market under the symbol “CWEI”. All of the directors and executive officers of the Managing General Partner are employees of CWEI. CWEI maintains an internet website at www.claytonwilliams.com from which public information about CWEI may be obtained.

The principal executive offices of the Partnership are located at 6 Desta Drive, Suite 6500, Midland, Texas, 79705. The Managing General Partner and its staff, together with certain independent consultants used on an "as needed" basis, perform various services on behalf of the Partnership, including the selection of oil and gas properties and the marketing of production from such properties. The Partnership has no employees.

Operations

The business objective of the Partnership is to maximize the production and related net cash flow from the properties it currently owns without engaging in the drilling of any development or exploratory wells except through farm-out arrangements. If additional drilling is necessary to fully develop a Partnership property, the Partnership will enter into a farm-out agreement with the Managing General Partner to assign a portion of the Partnership’s interest in the property to the Managing General Partner in exchange for retaining an interest in one or more new wells at no cost to the Partnership. The Managing General Partner obtains a fairness opinion from an unaffiliated petroleum engineer with respect to the terms of each farm-out agreement with the Partnership.

During 2006, the Partnership entered into two farm-out agreements with the Managing General Partner through which the Managing General Partner drilled the Barnett Amacker #5 and Barnett Amacker #6 wells and completed them as producers. The partnership retained a 10% interest in each well. The partnership paid none of the cost to drill and complete these wells.

Principal Products and Markets

The Partnership has acquired and holds royalty interests and net profit interests in oil and gas properties located in Texas and Oklahoma. All activities of the Partnership are confined to the continental United States. During 2006, 38% of the Partnership’s revenues were derived from the sale of oil production and 62% were derived from gas production. All oil and gas produced from these properties is sold to unrelated third parties in the oil and gas business. The Partnership believes that the loss of any of its purchasers would not have a material adverse affect on its results of operations due to the availability of other purchasers.

The revenues generated from the Partnership's oil and gas activities are dependent upon the current market for oil and gas. The prices received by the Partnership for its oil and gas production depend upon numerous factors beyond the Partnership's control, including competition, economic, political and regulatory developments and competitive energy sources. The Partnership is unable to accurately predict future prices of oil and natural gas.

Competition

Because the Partnership has utilized all of its funds available for the acquisition of net profits or royalty interests in producing oil and gas properties, it is not subject to competition from other oil and gas property purchasers. See Item 2, Properties.

Factors that may adversely affect the Partnership include delays in completing arrangements for the sale of production, availability of a market for production, rising operating costs of producing oil and gas and complying with applicable water and air pollution control statutes, increasing costs and difficulties of transportation, and marketing of competitive fuels. Moreover, domestic oil and gas must compete with imported oil and gas and with coal, atomic energy, hydroelectric power and other forms of energy.

Regulation

The Partnership’s oil and gas production and related operations are subject to extensive rules and regulations promulgated by federal, state and local agencies. Failure to comply with such rules and regulations can result in substantial penalties. The regulatory burden on the oil and gas industry increases the Partnership’s cost of doing business and affects the Partnership’s profitability. Because such rules and regulations are frequently amended or reinterpreted, the Partnership is unable to predict the future cost or impact of complying with such laws.

All of the states in which the Partnership conducts business generally require permits for drilling operations, drilling bonds and reports concerning operations and impose other requirements relating to the exploration and production of oil and gas. Such states also have statutes or regulations addressing conservation matters, including provisions for the unitization or pooling of oil and gas properties, the establishment of maximum rates of production from oil and gas wells and the spacing, plugging and abandonment of such wells. The statutes and regulations of certain states also limit the rate at which oil and gas can be produced from the Partnership’s properties.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) regulates interstate natural gas transportation rates and service conditions, which affect the marketing of gas produced by the Partnership, as well as the revenues the Partnership receives for sales of such production. Since the mid-1980s, the FERC has issued various orders that have significantly altered the marketing and transportation of gas. These orders resulted in a fundamental restructuring of interstate pipeline sales and transportation services, including the unbundling by interstate pipelines of the sales, transportation, storage and other components of the city-gate sales services such pipelines previously performed. These FERC actions were designed to increase competition within all phases of the gas industry. The interstate regulatory framework may enhance the Partnership’s ability to market and transport its gas, although this framework may also subject the Partnership to competition and to the more restrictive pipeline imbalance tolerances and greater associated penalties for violation of such tolerances.

The Partnership’s sales of oil production are not presently regulated and are made at market prices. The price the Partnership receives from the sale of those products is affected by the cost of transporting the products to market. The FERC has implemented regulations establishing an indexing system for transportation rates for oil pipelines, which, generally, would index such rates to inflation, subject to certain conditions and limitations. The Partnership is not able to predict with any certainty what effect, if any, these regulations will have on the Partnership, but, other factors being equal, the regulations may, over time, tend to increase transportation costs which may have the effect of reducing wellhead prices for oil and natural gas liquids.

Environmental Matters

The Partnership’s operations pertaining to oil and gas production and related activities are subject to numerous and constantly changing federal, state and local laws governing the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to environmental protection. These laws and regulations may require the acquisition of certain permits prior to or in connection with the Partnership’s operations, restrict or prohibit the types, quantities and concentration of substances that can be released into the environment, restrict or prohibit activities that could impact wetlands, endangered or threatened species or other protected areas or natural resources, require some degree of remedial action to mitigate pollution from former operations, such as pit cleanups and plugging abandoned wells, and impose substantial liabilities for pollution resulting from the Partnership’s operations. Such laws and regulations may substantially increase the cost of the Partnership’s operations and may prevent or delay the commencement or continuation of a given project and thus generally could have a material adverse effect upon the Partnership’s financial condition and operations. Violation of these laws and regulations could result in significant fines or penalties. The Partnership may experience accidental spills, leaks and other discharges of contaminants, or the Partnership may be held responsible for past or ongoing contamination in acquired properties. The Partnership maintains insurance against "sudden and accidental" occurrences, which may cover some, but not all, of the environmental risks described above. Most significantly, the insurance the Partnership maintains will not cover the risks described above which occur over a sustained period of time. Further, there can be no assurance that such insurance will continue to be available to cover all such costs or that such insurance will be available at premium levels that justify its purchase. The occurrence of a significant event not fully insured or indemnified against could have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s financial condition and operations.

The Partnership believes that it is in substantial compliance with current applicable environmental laws and regulations, and the cost of compliance with such laws and regulations has not been material and is not expected to be material during 2007. The Partnership does not believe that it will be required to incur any material capital expenditures to comply with existing environmental requirements. Nevertheless, changes in existing environmental laws and regulations or in the interpretations thereof could have a significant impact on the Partnership’s operations, as well as the oil and gas industry in general. For instance, any changes in environmental laws and regulations that result in more stringent and costly waste handling, storage, transport, disposal or clean-up requirements could have a material adverse impact on the Partnership’s operations.

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), also known as the “Superfund” law, imposes liability, without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons that are considered to have contributed to the release of a “hazardous substance” into the environment. These persons include the owner or operator of the disposal site or the site where the release occurred and companies that disposed or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances at the site where the release occurred. Under CERCLA, such persons may be subject to joint and several liability for the costs of cleaning up the hazardous substances that have been released into the environment and for damages to natural resources, and it is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by the hazardous substances released into the environment. The failure of an operator of a property owned by the Partnership to comply with applicable environmental regulations may, in certain circumstances, be attributed to the Partnership. The Partnership is not aware of any liabilities for which it may be held responsible that would materially and adversely affect the Partnership.

The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”), and analogous state laws, impose detailed requirements for the handling, storage, treatment and disposal of hazardous and solid wastes. RCRA specifically excludes drilling fluids, produced waters, and other wastes associated with the exploration, development, or production of crude oil, natural gas or geothermal energy from regulation as hazardous wastes. However, these wastes may be regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) or state agencies as solid waste. Moreover, many ordinary industrial wastes, such as paint wastes, waste solvents, laboratory wastes and waste compressor oils, are regulated as hazardous wastes. Although the costs of managing hazardous waste may be significant, the Partnership does not expect to experience more burdensome costs than similarly situated companies.

The Federal Water Pollution Control Act (“Clean Water Act”), and analogous state laws, impose restrictions and strict controls with respect to the discharge of pollutants, including spills and leaks of oil and other substances, into waters of the United States. The discharge of pollutants into regulated waters is prohibited, except in accordance with the terms of a permit issued by the EPA or an analogous state agency. Federal and state regulatory agencies can impose administrative, civil and criminal penalties for non-compliance with discharge permits or other requirements of the Clean Water Act and analogous state laws and regulations. The United States Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (“OPA”), and similar legislation enacted in Texas, Louisiana and other coastal states, addresses oil spill prevention and control and significantly expands liability exposure across all segments of the oil and gas industry. OPA and such similar legislation and related regulations impose on the Partnership a variety of obligations related to the prevention of oil spills and liability for damages resulting from such spills. OPA and such similar legislation and related regulations impose strict and, with limited exceptions, joint and several liabilities upon each responsible party for oil removal costs and a variety of public and private damages.

Recent studies have suggested that emissions of certain gases may be contributing to a warming of the Earth’s atmosphere. In response to these studies, many nations have agreed to limit emissions of “greenhouse gases”, pursuant to the United Nations Framework Convention of Climate Change, also known as the “Kyoto Protocol”. Methane, a primary component of natural gas, and carbon dioxide, a byproduct of the burning of natural gas and oil, and refined petroleum products, are “greenhouse gases” regulated by the Kyoto Protocol. Although the United States is not participating in the Kyoto Protocol, the current session of Congress is considering climate change legislation, with multiple bills having been introduced in the Senate that propose to restrict greenhouse gas emissions. Several states have already adopted legislation, regulations and/or regulatory initiatives to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases. For instance, California adopted the “California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006”, which requires the California Air Resources Board to achieve a 25% reduction in emissions of greenhouse gases from sources in California by 2020. Additionally, on November 29, 2006, the U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments on and has since begun reviewing a decision made by the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia in Massachusetts, et al v. EPA, a case in which the appellate court held that the EPA had discretion under the Clean Air Act to refuse to regulate carbon dioxide emissions from mobile sources. Passage of climate change legislation by Congress or a Supreme Court reversal of the appellate decision could result in federal regulation of carbon dioxide emissions and other greenhouse gases. At this time, it is not possible to accurately estimate how potential future laws or regulations addressing greenhouse gas emissions would impact the Partnership’s operations or financial condition.

Limited partners should be aware that the assessment of liability associated with environmental liabilities is not always correlated to the value of a particular project. Accordingly, liability associated with the environment under local, state, or federal regulations, particularly clean-ups under CERCLA, can exceed the value of the Partnership’s investment in the associated site.

Partnership Employees

The Partnership has no employees; however the Managing General Partner and CWEI have a staff of geologists, engineers, accountants, landmen and clerical staff who engage in Partnership activities and operations and perform additional services for the Partnership as needed. In addition, the Partnership engages independent consultants such as petroleum engineers and geologists as needed.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There are many factors that affect the Partnership’s business, some of which are beyond the Partnership’s control. The Partnership’s business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The risks described below are not the only ones facing the Partnership. Additional risks not presently known to the Partnership or that the Partnership currently deems immaterial individually or in the aggregate may also impair the Partnership’s business operations.

The Partnership’s oil and gas reserves will decline as they are produced.

In general, the volume of production from an oil and gas property declines as reserves related to that property are depleted. The decline rates depend upon reservoir characteristics. The implied life of the Partnership’s proved reserves at December 31, 2006 is approximately 11.0 years, based on 2006 production levels.

Volatility of oil and gas prices significantly affects the Partnership’s cash flow and ability to produce oil and gas economically.

Historically, the markets for oil and gas have been volatile, and the Partnership believes that they are likely to continue to be volatile. Significant changes in oil and gas prices may result from relatively minor changes in the supply of and demand for oil and natural gas, market uncertainty and other factors that are beyond the Partnership’s control. The Partnership cannot predict, with any degree of certainty, future oil and natural gas prices. Changes in oil and natural gas prices significantly affect the Partnership’s revenues, operating results, profitability and the value of the Partnership’s oil and gas reserves. Those prices also affect the amount of cash flow available for distribution to partners and the amount of oil and natural gas that the Partnership can produce economically.

Changes in oil and gas prices impact both the Partnership’s estimated future net revenue and the estimated quantity of proved reserves. Price increases may permit additional quantities of reserves to be produced economically, and price decreases may render uneconomic the production of reserves previously classified as proved. Thus, the Partnership may experience material increases and decreases in reserve quantities solely as a result of price changes and not as a result of well performance.

Information concerning the Partnership’s reserves and future net revenues estimates is inherently uncertain.

The estimated proved reserve information is based upon reserve reports prepared by independent engineers. The accuracy of proved reserves estimates and estimated future net revenues from such reserves is a function of the quality of available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data and is subject to various assumptions, including assumptions required by the SEC relating to oil and gas prices, drilling and operating expenses, and other matters. Although the Partnership believes that the Partnership’s estimated proved reserves represent reserves that the Partnership is reasonably certain to recover, actual future production, oil and gas prices, revenues, taxes, development expenditures, operating expenses and quantities of recoverable oil and gas reserves will most likely vary from the assumptions and estimates used to determine proved reserves. Any significant variance could materially affect the estimated quantities and value of the Partnership’s oil and gas reserves, which in turn could adversely affect the Partnership’s cash flow and results of operations. In addition, the Partnership may adjust estimates of proved reserves to reflect production history, results of development, prevailing oil and gas prices and other factors, many of which are beyond the Partnership’s control. Downward adjustments to the Partnership’s estimated proved reserves could require the Partnership to write down the carrying value of the Partnership’s oil and gas properties, which would reduce the Partnership’s earnings and partners' equity.

The present value of proved reserves will not necessarily equal the current fair market value of the Partnership’s estimated oil and gas reserves. In accordance with the reserve reporting requirements of the SEC, the estimated discounted future net cash flows from proved reserves are generally based on prices and costs as of the date of the estimate. Actual future prices and costs may be materially higher or lower than those as of the date of the estimate. The timing of both the production and the expenses with respect to the development and production of oil and gas properties will affect the timing of future net cash flows from proved reserves and their present value.

The Partnership may not be insured against all of the operating hazards to which the Partnership’s business is exposed.

The Partnership’s operations are subject to the usual hazards incident to the production of oil and gas, such as windstorms, blowouts, cratering, explosions, uncontrollable flows of oil, gas or well fluids, fires, severe weather and pollution and other environmental risks. These hazards can cause personal injury and loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of property and equipment, pollution or environmental damage, clean-up responsibilities, regulatory investigation and penalties, and suspension of operations which could result in substantial loss. The Partnership maintains insurance against some, but not all, of the risks described above. Such insurance may not be adequate to cover losses or liabilities. Also, the Partnership cannot be assured of the continued availability of insurance at premium levels that justify its purchase.

The Partnership’s business depends on oil and natural gas transportation facilities, most of which are owned by others.

The marketability of the Partnership’s oil and natural gas production depends in large part on the availability, proximity and capacity of pipeline systems owned by third parties. The unavailability of or lack of available capacity on these systems and facilities could result in the shut-in of producing wells. Although the Partnership has some contractual control over the transportation of the Partnership’s product, material changes in these business relationships could materially affect the Partnership’s operations. Federal and state regulation of oil and natural gas production and transportation, tax and energy policies, changes in supply and demand, pipeline pressures, damage to or destruction of pipelines and general economic conditions could adversely affect the Partnership’s ability to produce, gather and transport oil and natural gas.

The Partnership’s industry is highly competitive.

The oil and gas industry as a whole competes with other industries in supplying the energy and fuel requirements of industrial, commercial and individual consumers. The price and availability of alternative energy sources could adversely affect the Partnership’s revenue.

The market for the Partnership’s oil, gas and natural gas liquids production depends on factors beyond the Partnership’s control, including domestic and foreign political conditions, the overall level of supply of and demand for oil, gas and natural gas liquids, the price of imports of oil and gas, weather conditions, the price and availability of alternative fuels, the proximity and capacity of gas pipelines and other transportation facilities and overall economic conditions.

Compliance with environmental and other government regulations could be costly and could negatively impact production.

All of the states in which the Partnership operates generally require reports concerning operations and impose other requirements relating to the production of oil and gas. Such states also have statutes or regulations addressing conservation matters, including provisions for the unitization or pooling of oil and gas properties, the establishment of maximum rates of production from oil and gas wells and the spacing, plugging and abandonment of such wells. The statutes and regulations of certain states also limit the rate at which oil and gas can be produced from the Partnership’s properties.

FERC regulates interstate natural gas transportation rates and service conditions, which affect the marketing of gas the Partnership produces, as well as the revenues the Partnership receives for sales of such production. Since the mid-1980s, the FERC has issued various orders that have significantly altered the marketing and transportation of gas. These orders resulted in a fundamental restructuring of interstate pipeline sales and transportation services, including the unbundling by interstate pipelines of the sales, transportation, storage and other components of the city-gate sales services such pipelines previously performed. These FERC actions were designed to increase competition within all phases of the gas industry. The interstate regulatory framework may enhance the Partnership’s ability to market and transport the Partnership’s gas, although it may also subject the Partnership to greater competition and to the more restrictive pipeline imbalance tolerances and greater associated penalties for violation of such tolerances.

The Partnership’s sales of oil and natural gas liquids are not presently regulated and are made at market prices. The price the Partnership receives from the sale of those products is affected by the cost of transporting the products to market. The FERC has implemented regulations establishing an indexing system for transportation rates for oil pipelines, which, generally, would index such rates to inflation, subject to certain conditions and limitations. The Partnership is not able to predict with any certainty what effect, if any, these regulations will have on the Partnership, but, other factors being equal, the regulations may, over time, tend to increase transportation costs which may have the effect of reducing wellhead prices for oil and natural gas liquids.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

Not applicable.

Item 2. Properties

As of December 31, 2006, the Partnership possessed an interest in oil and gas properties located in Garvin, Leflore, Noble and Woods Counties of Oklahoma; Brazos, Burleson, Fayette, Lee, Nolan, Pecos, Upton, Ward and Winkler Counties of Texas. These properties consist of various interests in approximately 175 wells and units.

Reserves

The following table sets forth certain information as of December 31, 2006 with respect to the Partnership’s estimated proved oil and gas reserves pursuant to SEC guidelines and standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows.

	Proved Developed				Proved		Total
	Producing		Nonproducing		Undeveloped		Proved
Oil (Bbls)		99,000		84,000		25,000		208,000
Gas (Mcf)		2,117,000		301,000		653,000		3,071,000
Total (BOE)		452,000		134,000		134,000		720,000

The following table sets forth certain information as of December 31, 2006 regarding the Partnership’s proved oil and gas reserves for certain significant fields.

	Proved Reserves
					Total Oil		Percent of
	Oil		Gas		Equivalent		Total Oil
	(Bbls)		(Mcf)		(BOE)		Equivalent
Amacker/Wilshire		44,000		2,561,000		471,000		65.4	%
Rhoda Walker		134,000		444,000		208,000		28.9	%
Other		30,000		66,000		41,000		5.7	%
Total		208,000		3,071,000		720,000		100.0	%

The estimates of proved reserves at December 31, 2006 and the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows were derived from a report prepared by Ryder Scott Company, L.P., petroleum consultants. These calculations were prepared using standard geological and engineering methods generally accepted by the petroleum industry and in accordance with SEC financial accounting and reporting standards.

In accordance with applicable financial accounting and reporting standards of the SEC, the estimates of the Partnership’s proved reserves and the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows set forth herein are made using oil and gas sales prices estimated to be in effect as of the date of such reserve estimates and are held constant throughout the life of the properties. Estimated quantities of proved reserves and their present value are affected by changes in oil and gas prices. The average prices utilized for the purposes of estimating the Partnership’s proved reserves and the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows as of December 31, 2006 were $58.37 per Bbl of oil and natural gas liquids and $5.78 per Mcf of gas, as compared to $59.69 per Bbl of oil and $10.43 per Mcf of gas as of December 31, 2005.

The reserve information shown is estimated. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data, the precision of the engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. The estimates of reserves, future cash flows and standardized measure are based on various assumptions, including those prescribed by the SEC, and are inherently imprecise. Although the Partnership believes these estimates are reasonable, actual future production, cash flows, taxes, development expenditures, operating expenses and quantities of recoverable oil and natural gas reserves may vary substantially from these estimates. Also, the use of a 10% discount factor for reporting purposes may not necessarily represent the most appropriate discount factor, given actual interest rates and risks to which the Partnership’s business or the oil and natural gas industry in general are subject.

Unanticipated depletion, if it occurs, will result in lower reserves than previously estimated; thus an ultimately lower return for the Partnership. Basic changes in past reserve estimates occur annually. As new data is gathered during the subsequent year, the engineer must revise his earlier estimates. A year of new information, which is pertinent to the estimation of future recoverable volumes, is available during the subsequent year evaluation. In applying industry standards and procedures, the new data may cause the previous estimates to be revised. This revision may increase or decrease the earlier estimated volumes. Pertinent information gathered during the year may include actual production and decline rates, production from offset wells drilled to the same geologic formation, increased or decreased water production, workovers, and changes in lifting costs, among others. Accordingly, reserve estimates are often different from the quantities of oil and gas that are ultimately recovered.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Partnership is a party.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of 2006 through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.

Part II

Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Market Information

Limited partnership interests, or units, in the Partnership were initially offered and sold for a price of $500. Limited partner units are not traded on any exchange and there is no public or organized trading market for them.

Number of Limited Partner Interest Holders

As of December 31, 2006 there were 532 holders of limited partner units in the Partnership.

Distributions

Pursuant to Article IV, Section 4.01 of the Partnership's Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership "Net Cash Flow" is distributed to the partners on a quarterly basis. "Net Cash Flow" is defined as "the cash generated by the Partnership's investments in producing oil and gas properties, less (i) General and Administrative Costs, (ii) Operating Costs, and (iii) any reserves necessary to meet current and anticipated needs of the Partnership, as determined at the sole discretion of the Managing General Partner." During 2006, distributions were made totaling $2,100,116, with $1,890,116 ($94.51 per unit) distributed to the limited partners and $210,000 to the general partner.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

After completion of the Partnership's first full fiscal year of operations and each year thereafter, the Managing General Partner has offered and will continue to offer to purchase each limited partner's interest in the Partnership in accordance with the obligations set forth in the partnership agreement. The pricing mechanism used to calculate the repurchase is based on tangible assets of the Partnership, plus the present value of the future net revenues of proved oil and gas properties, minus liabilities with a risk factor discount of up to one-third which may be implemented at the sole discretion of the Managing General Partner. However, the Managing General Partner's obligation to purchase limited partner units under the partnership agreement is limited to an annual expenditure of an amount not in excess of 10% of the total limited partner units initially subscribed for by limited partners. The following table sets forth certain information regarding purchases of limited partnership units by the Managing General Partner during the year of 2006.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

General

The Partnership was formed to acquire non-operating interests in producing oil and gas properties, to produce and market crude oil and natural gas produced from such properties and to distribute any net proceeds from operations to the general and limited partners. Net revenues from producing oil and gas properties are not reinvested in other revenue producing assets except to the extent that producing facilities and wells are reworked or where methods are employed to improve or enable more efficient recovery of oil and gas reserves. The economic life of the Partnership thus depends on the period over which the Partnership's oil and gas reserves are economically recoverable.

Increases or decreases in Partnership revenues and, therefore, distributions to partners will depend primarily on changes in the prices received for production, changes in volumes of production sold, lease operating expenses, enhanced recovery projects, offset drilling activities pursuant to farm-out arrangements and on the depletion of wells. Since wells deplete over time, production can generally be expected to decline from year to year.

Well operating costs and general and administrative costs usually decrease with production declines; however, these costs may not decrease proportionately. Net income available for distribution to the limited partners has fluctuated over the past few years and is expected to decline in later years based on these factors.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Partnership follows the full cost method of accounting for its oil and gas properties. The full cost method subjects companies to quarterly calculations of a “ceiling”, or limitation on the amount of properties that can be capitalized on the balance sheet. If the Partnership’s capitalized costs are in excess of the calculated ceiling, the excess must be written off as an expense.

The Partnership’s discounted present value of its proved oil and natural gas reserves is a major component of the ceiling calculation, and represents the component that requires the most subjective judgments. Estimates of reserves are forecasts based on engineering data, projected future rates of production and the timing of future expenditures. The process of estimating oil and natural gas reserves requires substantial judgment, resulting in imprecise determinations, particularly for new discoveries. Different reserve engineers may make different estimates of reserve quantities based on the same data. The Partnership’s reserve estimates are prepared by outside consultants.

The passage of time provides more qualitative information regarding estimates of reserves, and revisions are made to prior estimates to reflect updated information. However, there can be no assurance that more significant revisions will not be necessary in the future. If future significant revisions are necessary that reduce previously estimated reserve quantities, it could result in a full cost property writedown. In addition to the impact of these estimates of proved reserves on calculation of the ceiling, estimates of proved reserves are also a significant component of the calculation of depletion, depreciation, and amortization (“DD&A”).

While the quantities of proved reserves require substantial judgment, the associated prices of oil and natural gas reserves that are included in the discounted present value of the reserves do not require judgment. The ceiling calculation dictates that prices and costs in effect as of the last day of the period are generally held constant indefinitely. Because the ceiling calculation dictates that prices in effect as of the last day of the applicable quarter are held constant indefinitely, the resulting value is not indicative of the true fair value of the reserves. Oil and natural gas prices have historically been cyclical and, on any particular day at the end of a quarter, can be either substantially higher or lower than the Partnership’s long-term price forecast that is a barometer for true fair value.

Operating Results

The following discussion compares our results for the year ended December 31, 2006 to the two previous years. All references to 2006, 2005 and 2004 within this section refer to the respective annual periods.

Income from net profits

Oil and gas prices remained high compared to the previous two years. Comparing 2006 to 2005, oil and gas sales increased $167,000, of which price variances accounted for a $181,500 increase and production variances accounted for a $14,500 decrease. Comparing 2005 to 2004, oil and gas sales increased $981,100, of which price variances accounted for a $814,900 increase and production variances accounted for a $166,200 increase.

Production in 2006 (on a BOE basis) was less than 1% higher than 2005 and 8% higher than 2004. Our oil production was 9% lower in 2006 than 2005 due primarily to production decline on several properties more than offset production from the new wells. Our gas production was 5% higher in 2006 than 2005 due primarily to production from the Barnett Amacker #5.

In 2006, our realized oil price was 17% higher than 2005 and 66% higher than 2004, while our realized gas price was less than 1% lower than 2005 and 29% higher than 2004. Historically, the markets for oil and gas have been volatile, and they are likely to continue to be volatile. We have very little control over the prices we receive for our production at the wellhead since most of our physical marketing arrangements are market-sensitive.

Oil and gas production costs on a BOE basis increased from $13.95 per BOE in 2005 and $14.18 per BOE in 2004 to $19.75 per BOE in 2006. The increase in oil and gas production costs in 2006 was primarily due to a workover performed on the Middleton 124 #2. It is likely that these factors will continue to contribute to higher production costs in future periods.

Expenses

Depletion on a BOE basis increased 22% from 2005 and 6% from 2004. Comparing 2006 to 2005, depletion expense increased $21,100, of which rate variances accounted for a $21,000 increase and production variances accounted or a $100 increase. Comparing 2005 to 2004, depletion expense decreased $7,200, of which rate variances accounted for a $14,700 decrease and production variances accounted for a $7,500 increase. Depletion rates are a function of net capitalized costs and estimated reserve quantities. The rates for 2007 are expected to be similar to the 2006 rates.

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses were 9% higher than 2005 and 2% higher than 2004 due primarily to higher professional fees for audit and tax services.

Texas Margin Taxes

In May 2006, the State of Texas adopted House Bill 3, which modified the state’s franchise tax structure, replacing the previous tax based on capital or earned surplus with a margin tax (the “Texas Margin Tax”) effective with franchise tax reports filed on or after January 1, 2008. The Texas margin Tax is computed by applying the applicable tax rate (1% for the Partnership’s business) to the profit margin, which is generally determined by total revenue less either cost of goods sold or compensation as applicable. However the Partnership believes, based on its interpretation, that the Texas Margin Tax does not apply to the Partnership since substantially all of its income is derived from a net profits interest.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Partnership distributions during the year ended December 31, 2006 were $2,100,116, of which $1,890,116 was distributed to the limited partners and $210,000 to the general partner. Cumulative cash distributions of $23,429,102 have been made to the general and limited partners as of December 31, 2006. As of December 31, 2006, $21,101,907 or $1,055.10 per limited partner unit has been distributed to the limited partners, representing 211% of contributed capital.

Our primary source of cash from operating activities is our oil and gas sales, net of production costs. Cash flow provided by operating activities for 2006 was 10% lower than 2005 due to the combined effects of several drivers. The positive benefits of a 5% increase in oil and gas sales, driven primarily by higher oil and gas prices, were offset in part by increases in production costs. Our only use in financing activities is the distribution to partners which was 5% higher than 2005.

As of December 31, 2006, the Partnership had approximately $453,400 in working capital. The Managing General Partner knows of no unusual contractual commitments. Although the Partnership held many long-lived properties at inception, because of the restrictions on property development imposed by the partnership agreement, the Partnership cannot develop its non-producing properties, if any. Without continued development, the producing reserves continue to deplete. Accordingly, as the Partnership’s properties have matured and depleted, the net cash flows from operations for the Partnership have steadily declined, except in periods of substantially increased commodity pricing. Maintenance of properties and administrative expenses for the Partnership are increasing relative to production. As the properties continue to deplete, maintenance of properties and administrative costs as a percentage of production are expected to continue to increase.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN48”) to clarify the manner in which enterprises account for uncertainties in their provisions for income taxes. Generally, the standard presented by FIN 48 is a “more likely than not” standard and is intended to enhance the relevancy and comparability of financial reporting by companies. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2006. The adoption of FIN 48 is not expected to have an impact on the Partnership’s financial statements.

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization

Southwest Royalties, Inc. Income Fund VI was organized under the laws of the state of Tennessee on December 4, 1986, for the purpose of acquiring producing oil and gas properties and to produce and market crude oil and natural gas produced from such properties for a term of 50 years, unless terminated at an earlier date as provided for in the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership sells its oil and gas production to a variety of purchasers with the prices it receives being dependent upon the oil and gas economy. Southwest Royalties, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Clayton Williams Energy, Inc., serves as the Managing General Partner.

Revenues, costs and expenses are allocated as follows:

	Limited	General
	Partners	Partners
Interest income on capital contributions	100%	-
Oil and gas sales	90%	10%
All other revenues	90%	10%
Organization and offering costs (1)	100%	-
Amortization of organization costs	100%	-
Property acquisition costs	100%	-
Gain/loss on property disposition	90%	10%
Operating and administrative costs (2)	90%	10%
Depreciation, depletion and amortization of oil and gas properties	90%	10%
All other costs	90%	10%

(1)

All organization costs in excess of 3% of initial capital contributions will be paid by the Managing General Partner and will be treated as a capital contribution. The Partnership paid the Managing General Partner an amount equal to 3% of initial capital contributions for such organization costs.

(2)

Administrative costs in any year, which exceed 2% of capital contributions shall be paid by the Managing General Partner and will be treated as a capital contribution.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Oil and Gas Properties

Oil and gas properties are accounted for at cost under the full-cost method. Under this method, all productive and nonproductive costs incurred in connection with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves are capitalized. Gain or loss on the sale of oil and gas properties is not recognized unless significant oil and gas reserves are involved.

Should the net capitalized costs exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves, discounted at 10%, such excess costs would be charged to current expense. As of December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, the net capitalized costs did not exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves.

The Partnership's interest in oil and gas properties consists of net profits interests in proved properties located within the continental United States. A net profits interest is created when the owner of a working interest in a property enters into an arrangement providing that the net profits interest owner will receive a stated percentage of the net profit from the property. The net profits interest owner will not otherwise participate in additional costs and expenses of the property.

The Partnership recognizes income from its net profits interest in oil and gas property on an accrual basis, while the quarterly cash distributions of the net profits interest are based on a calculation of actual cash received from oil and gas sales, net of expenses incurred during that quarterly period. If the net profits interest calculation results in expenses incurred exceeding the oil and gas income received during a quarter, no cash distribution is due to the Partnership's net profits interest until the deficit is recovered from future net profits. The Partnership accrues a quarterly loss on its net profits interest provided there is a cumulative net amount due for accrued revenue as of the balance sheet date. As of December 31, 2006, there were no timing differences which resulted in a deficit net profit interest.

Notes to Financial Statements

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Estimates and Uncertainties

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Partnership’s depletion calculation and full cost ceiling test for oil and gas properties uses oil and gas reserve estimates, which are inherently imprecise. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Syndication Costs

Syndication costs are accounted for as a reduction of partnership equity.

Environmental Costs

The Partnership is subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. These laws, which are constantly changing, regulate the discharge of materials into the environment and may require the Partnership to remove or mitigate the environmental effects of the disposal or release of petroleum or chemical substances at various sites. Environmental expenditures are expensed or capitalized depending on their future economic benefit. Costs, which improve a property as compared with the condition of the property when originally constructed or acquired and costs, which prevent future environmental contamination are capitalized. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and that have no future economic benefits are expensed. Liabilities for expenditures of a non-capital nature are recorded when environmental assessment and/or remediation is probable, and the costs can be reasonably estimated.

Revenue Recognition

The Partnership recognizes oil and gas sales when delivery to the purchaser has occurred and title has transferred. This occurs when production has been delivered to a pipeline or transport vehicle.

Gas Balancing

The Partnership utilizes the sales method of accounting for gas-balancing arrangements. Under this method the Partnership recognizes sales revenue on all gas sold. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Partnership was under produced by 4,095 and 5,312 mcf of gas, respectively.

Income Taxes

No provision for income taxes is reflected in these financial statements, since the tax effects of the Partnership's income or loss are passed through to the individual partners.

In accordance with the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" the Partnership's tax basis in its net oil and gas properties at December 31, 2006 and 2005 is $2,086,657 and $1,880,677, respectively, less than that shown on the accompanying Balance Sheets in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Partnership considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Partnership maintains its cash at one financial institution.

Number of Limited Partner Units

As of December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, there were 20,000 limited partner units outstanding held by 532, 559 and 602 partners.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Partnership is subject to credit risk for amounts due from its customers. Although a substantial portion of its debtors’ ability to pay is dependent upon the oil and gas industry, credit risk is minimized due to a large customer base. All partnership revenues are received by the Managing General Partner and subsequently remitted to the partnership and all expenses are paid by the Managing General Partner and subsequently reimbursed by the Partnership.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of cash and accounts receivable approximates fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

Net Income per limited partnership unit

The net income per limited partnership unit is calculated by using the number of outstanding limited partnership units.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

3. Abandonment Obligations

The Partnership follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143 “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” (“SFAS 143”), as amended. SFAS 143 requires the Partnership to recognize a liability for the present value of all legal obligations associated with the retirement of tangible, long-lived assets and capitalize an equal amount as a cost of the asset. The cost associated with the abandonment obligations, along with any estimated salvage value, is included in the computation of depreciation, depletion and amortization.

Changes in abandonment obligations for 2006 and 2005 are as follows:

	2006			2005
Beginning of year	$	510,646		$	501,653
Additional abandonment obligations from new wells		1,268			3,934
Reduction of obligations due to farm-outs		-			(32,811	)

After completion of the Partnership's first full fiscal year of operations and each year thereafter, the Managing General Partner has offered and will continue to offer to purchase each limited partner's interest in the Partnership. The pricing mechanism used to calculate the repurchase is based on tangible assets of the Partnership, plus the present value of the future net revenues of proved oil and gas properties, minus liabilities with a risk factor discount of up to one-third which may be implemented at the sole discretion of the Managing General Partner. However, the Managing General Partner's obligation to purchase limited partner units is limited to an annual expenditure of an amount not in excess of 10% of the total limited partner units initially subscribed for by limited partners.

The Partnership is subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, which establish standards and requirements for protection of the environment. The Partnership cannot predict the future impact of such standards and requirements, which are subject to change and can have retroactive effectiveness. The Partnership continues to monitor the status of these laws and regulations.

As of December 31, 2006, the Partnership has not been fined, cited or notified of any environmental violations and management is not aware of any unasserted violations, which would have a material adverse effect upon the Partnership’s condition and operations. However, the Managing General Partner does recognize by the very nature of its business, material costs could be incurred in the near term to bring the Partnership into total compliance. The amount of such future expenditures is not determinable due to several factors, including the unknown magnitude of possible contaminations, the unknown timing and extent of the corrective actions which may be required, the determination of the Partnership's liability in proportion to other responsible parties and the extent to which such expenditures are recoverable from insurance or indemnifications from prior owners of the Partnership's properties.

5. Related Party Transactions

A significant portion of the oil and gas properties in which the Partnership has an interest are purchased from and operated by the Managing General Partner. As provided for in the operating agreement for each respective oil and gas property in which the Partnership has an interest, the operator is paid an amount for administrative overhead attributable to operating such properties, with such amounts to Southwest Royalties, Inc. as operator approximating $94,400, $92,700 and $85,700, for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The amounts for administrative overhead attributable to operating the partnerships properties has been deducted from gross oil and gas revenues in the determination of net profit interest. In addition, the Managing General Partner and certain officers and employees may have an interest in some of the properties in which the Partnership also participates.

Southwest Royalties, Inc., the Managing General Partner, was paid $144,000 during 2006, 2005 and 2004, as an administrative fee for indirect general and administrative overhead expenses. The administrative fees are included in general and administrative expense on the statement of operations.

Receivables from Southwest Royalties, Inc., the Managing General Partner, of approximately $346,100 and $352,600 are from oil and gas production, net of lease operating costs and production taxes, as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

6. Oil and Gas Reserves Information (unaudited)

The estimates of proved oil and gas reserves utilized in the preparation of the financial statements were prepared by independent petroleum engineers. Such estimates are in accordance with guidelines established by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Accounting Standards Board, which require that reserve reports be prepared under economic and operating conditions existing at the registrant's year end with no provision for price and cost escalations except by contractual arrangements. Future cash inflows were computed by applying year-end prices to the year-end quantities of proved reserves. Future development, abandonment and production costs were computed by estimating the expenditures to be incurred in developing, producing, and abandoning proved oil and gas reserves at the end of the year, based on year-end costs. All of the Partnership's reserves are located in the United States. For information about the Partnership’s results of operations from oil and gas producing activities, see the accompanying statements of operations.

The Partnership's interest in proved oil and gas reserves is as follows:

	Oil (bbls)			Gas (mcf)

December 31, 2005		243,000			4,206,000
December 31, 2006		183,000			2,418,000

Net revisions of 358,000 BOE in 2006 consisted of approximately 65,000 BOE of downward revisions attributable to the effects of lower product prices on the estimated quantities of proved reserves, and downward revisions of approximately 293,000 BOE attributable to well performance primarily from properties in the Amacker/Wilshire field of West Texas. Net revisions of 70,000 BOE in 2005 consisted of approximately 44,000 BOE of upward revisions attributable to the effects of higher product prices on the estimated quantities of proved reserves, net of downward revisions of approximately 114,000 BOE attributable to well performance primarily from properties in the Amacker/Wilshire field of West Texas.

Oil price adjustments were made in the individual evaluations to reflect oil quality, gathering and transportation costs. The standardized measure as of December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 reflects an average oil price of $58.37, $59.69 and $42.02 per barrel.

Gas price adjustments were made in the individual evaluations to reflect BTU content, gathering and transportation costs and gas processing and shrinkage. The standardized measure as of December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 reflects an average natural gas price of $5.78, $10.43 and $5.36 per Mcf.

6. Oil and Gas Reserves Information (unaudited) - continued

The evaluation of oil and gas properties is not an exact science and inevitably involves a significant degree of uncertainty, particularly with respect to the quantity of oil or gas that any given property is capable of producing. Estimates of oil and gas reserves are based on available geological and engineering data, the extent and quality of which may vary in each case and, in certain instances, may prove to be inaccurate. Consequently, properties may be depleted more rapidly than the geological and engineering data have indicated.

The Partnership has reserves, which are classified as proved developed and proved undeveloped. All of the proved reserves are included in the engineering reports, which evaluate the Partnership's present reserves.

Because the Partnership does not engage in drilling activities, the development of proved undeveloped reserves is conducted pursuant to farm-out arrangements with the Managing General Partner or unrelated third parties. Generally, the Partnership retains a carried interest such as an overriding royalty interest under the terms of a farm-out.

The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to proved oil and gas reserves at December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 is presented below:

	2006		2005		2004
Future cash inflows	$	29,875,000	$	69,358,000	$	42,902,000
Production, development and abandonment costs		11,493,000		18,482,000		12,108,000
