The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1988 and 1996, permitted to 10,885 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco E & P Inc. and has since transferred to Texaco Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 60.2K barrels of oil and 423K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
