The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 21, 1978, permitted to 3,600 ft.
It was permitted by Staybar Production CO. and has since transferred to Orth Oil Company Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 150 barrels of oil and 2.84K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in November 1997. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
