It was permitted by Phillips Petroleum Company and has since transferred to New Height Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 367K barrels of oil and 10.2K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 19 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
