It was permitted by Merit Energy Company and has since transferred to Scout Energy Management LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Queen, Devonian, Silurian (undifferentiated), Fusselman.
Its 2 leases have reported 240K barrels of oil and 3.27M 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.
