The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits between 1980 and 1997, permitted to 5,100 ft.
It was permitted by Headington Oil Company and has since transferred to Sun Expl. & Prod. CO.-Houston on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 23.2K barrels of oil and 3.46K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in May 2002. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
