The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued November 22, 1993, permitted to 9,000 ft.
It was permitted by Huber, J. M., Corporation and has since transferred to Fasken Oil And Ranch Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 580K barrels of oil and 289K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 14 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
