The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 9, 1995, permitted to 2,500 ft.
It was permitted by Marathon Oil Company and has since transferred to Extex Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Yates, Seven Rivers, Queen, San Andres.
Its lease has reported 183K barrels of oil and 311K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
