The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1994 and 2005, permitted to 13,635 ft.
It was permitted by Apache Corporation and has since transferred to Formentera Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 4 leases have reported 1.65M barrels of oil and 1.13M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 35 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
