The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 21, 2022, permitted to 9,900 ft.
It was permitted by Houston Oil Prod Enterprises,Inc and has since transferred to Big Lake Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 215K barrels of oil and 80.4K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
