The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 13, 1985, permitted to 6,500 ft.
It was permitted by Fagadau Energy Corporation and has since transferred to Primexx Operating Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Caddo.
Its 2 leases have reported 9.04K barrels of oil and 148K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in October 2011. The leases carry 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
