It was permitted by Brammer Supply, Inc. and has since transferred to Xplore Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 34.4K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in April 2024. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
