It was permitted by Oryx Energy Company and has since transferred to Kerr-Mcgee Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Its 3 leases have reported 207 barrels of oil and 3.89K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
