The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 25, 1983, permitted to 3,535 ft.
It was permitted by Scandrill, Inc. and has since transferred to Martin Well Service on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 4.93K barrels of oil and 15.6K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in December 1996. The lease carries 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
