It was permitted by Apache Corporation and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 204K barrels of oil and 315K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
