The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1995 and 1998, permitted to 9,750 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco E & P Inc. and has since transferred to Bce-Mach Iii LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 1.42M barrels of oil and 275K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 11 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
