The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 25, 2008, permitted to 11,134 ft.
It was permitted by Thompson, J. Cleo and has since transferred to Ovintiv USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Garyburg, Grayburg.
Its lease has reported 76.7K barrels of oil and 50.8K mcf of gas since September 2008, last reporting volume in December 2023. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Apr 3, 2009. Density, Neutron. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
