The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 9, 1985, permitted to 5,900 ft.
It was permitted by Texas American Oil Corp. and has since transferred to Magruder Edwin H. JR. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 3 leases have reported 39.6K barrels of oil and 663K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
