The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued May 11, 2017, permitted to 5,100 ft.
It was permitted by Lime Rock Resources IV-A, L.P. and has since transferred to Ring Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Yates, Seven Rivers, Queen, Grayburg.
Its lease has reported 617K barrels of oil and 359K mcf of gas since April 2018, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
