The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 17, 1981, permitted to 8,700 ft.
It was permitted by Cpc Exploration Inc. and has since transferred to Proline Energy Resources Inc on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 88.9K barrels of oil and 1.54M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
