The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 14, 1983, permitted to 2,171 ft.

It was permitted by Mobil Producing TX. & N.M. Inc. and has since transferred to Texas Petroleum Investment CO. on the wellbore schedule.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
