The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 13, 1992, permitted to 3,900 ft.
It was permitted by Shale Operating CO. and has since transferred to United Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Austin Chalk.
Its lease has reported 16.7K barrels of oil and 89 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
