The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 11, 1988, permitted to 3,600 ft.
It was permitted by Exxon Corp. and has since transferred to Grayrock Energy II LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 1.01M barrels of oil and 68.8K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 61 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
