It was permitted by Travelers Oil Company and has since transferred to Bce-Mach Iii LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 44.9K barrels of oil and 577K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
