The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 7, 2022, permitted to 9,600 ft.
It was permitted by Piedra Operating, LLC and has since transferred to Ovintiv USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 406K barrels of oil and 680K mcf of gas since August 2023, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
