The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 22, 1984, permitted to 6,750 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco Inc. and has since transferred to Texaco E & P Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Frio, Vicksburg.
Its 2 leases have reported 40K barrels of oil and 20.2K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in November 2007. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
