The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1984 and 1992, permitted to 12,000 ft.
It was permitted by Chesapeake Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to Magnolia Oil & Gas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 3.4K barrels of oil and 2.48M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in November 2025. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
