The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1989 and 1994, permitted to 9,870 ft.
It was permitted by Union Oil Company Of California and has since transferred to Morningstar Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Wolfcamp, Pennsylvanian, Canyon, Strawn.
Its 2 leases have reported 55K barrels of oil and 119K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
