The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 29, 1983, permitted to 10,000 ft.
It was permitted by Ada Oil Exploration Corp. and has since transferred to Adams Resources Expl. Corp. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 199K barrels of oil and 3.4M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in January 2018. The lease carries 12 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
