It was permitted by Naumann Oil & Gas, Inc. and has since transferred to North Fork Operating LP on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 179K barrels of oil and 14.9K mcf of gas since December 1998, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
