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

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Grayburg, San Andres, Leonard, Wolfcamp.

Its 2 leases have reported 215K barrels of oil and 203K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
