The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1991 and 2000, permitted to 8,500 ft.
It was permitted by Atasca Resources, Inc. and has since transferred to Baylor Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 4 leases have reported 87.8K barrels of oil and 175K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
