The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 31, 1983, permitted to 5,000 ft.
It was permitted by Johnson, F. T., JR. and has since transferred to Johnson & Ernst Operating CO. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 3.53K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in May 2000. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
