The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 25, 1987, permitted to 3,650 ft.
It was permitted by West Texas Petroleum and has since transferred to Wheeler Operating Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Glorieta.
Its lease has reported 2.33K barrels of oil and 161 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in September 2001. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
