The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 22, 2013, permitted to 7,000 ft.
It was permitted by Ppc Operating Company LLC and has since transferred to New Height Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 684 barrels of oil since March 2014, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
