The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1983 and 2003, permitted to 4,900 ft.
It was permitted by Caprock Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to Parallel Petroleum LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 295K barrels of oil and 35.7K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in April 2022. The leases carry 22 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
