The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 3, 1982, permitted to 6,506 ft.
It was permitted by Energy Reserves Group, Inc. and has since transferred to Atlas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 137K barrels of oil and 777K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 29 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
