The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1993 and 1996, permitted to 12,400 ft.
It was permitted by Shell Western E&P Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 774K barrels of oil and 14.5K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
