The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1997 and 2008, permitted to 11,000 ft.
It was permitted by Manhattan Petroleum, Inc. and has since transferred to Linn Operating Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 28.9K barrels of oil and 39.9K mcf of gas since September 1997, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
