The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 3, 1996, permitted to 8,500 ft.
It was permitted by Orion Oil And Gas Corporation and has since transferred to Redbird Oilfield Services Corp. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Shelor, Big Gas, Roberts, Humble.
Its lease has reported 115K barrels of oil and 11.6K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
