The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 16, 1994, permitted to 1,500 ft.
It was permitted by Pillows, Burl A. and has since transferred to Hay Creek Investments L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 13.1K barrels of oil and 60 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 24 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
