It was permitted by Indian Wells Oil Company and has since transferred to Bustamante Oil Company on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 10.5K barrels of oil and 328K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
