The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1984 and 1986, permitted to 12,500 ft.
It was permitted by Txo Production Corp. and has since transferred to Buffco Production Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Bac, Mass. Anhy, Bma/Rodessa, Pettit.
Its 3 leases have reported 157K barrels of oil and 27.1K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
