The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 28, 1986, permitted to 13,850 ft.
It was permitted by Chevron U. S. A. Inc. and has since transferred to Scout Energy Management LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Simpson, Ellenburger.
Its lease has reported 238K barrels of oil and 52K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
