The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued January 24, 2007, permitted to 3,600 ft.
It was permitted by Cavalier Oil & Gas, Inc. and has since transferred to North South Oil LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Edwards.
Its lease has reported 21.6K barrels of oil and 766 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
