It was permitted by Texas Oil & Gas Corp. and has since transferred to H&P Oil & Gas LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 27.6K barrels of oil and 273K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
