The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 31, 1983, permitted to 3,500 ft.
It was permitted by Republic Mineral Corporation and has since transferred to High Desert Resources L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including San Andres.
Its lease has reported 7.44K barrels of oil and 23 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
