The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 23, 1988, permitted to 5,410 ft.
It was permitted by Lobo Resources, Ltd. and has since transferred to Home Petroleum Corp. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Jackson, Yegua, Cook Mountain.
Its 2 leases have reported 8.93K barrels of oil and 308K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
