The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1980 and 1999, permitted to 10,500 ft.
It was permitted by Oxy USA Inc. and has since transferred to Oxy USA Wtp LP on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 20.9K barrels of oil and 21.2K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in January 2007. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
