The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 2012 and 2019, permitted to 10,500 ft.
It was permitted by Oxy USA Inc. and has since transferred to Owl Ops LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including Spraberry, Wichita-Albany, Dean, Wolfcamp.
Its 2 leases have reported 135K barrels of oil and 682K mcf of gas since February 2011, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
