The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 25, 1994, permitted to 7,983 ft.
It was permitted by Merit Energy Company and has since transferred to Estancia Oil & Gas LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 371K barrels of oil and 46.2K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 15 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
