The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 8, 1991, permitted to 2,500 ft.
It was permitted by Bostex Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to Geomeg Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 5.76K barrels of oil and 18 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
