The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued October 29, 2010, permitted to 11,000 ft.
It was permitted by Breitburn Operating L.P. and has since transferred to New Height Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 212K barrels of oil and 653K mcf of gas since April 2010, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
