The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 20, 1988, permitted to 5,300 ft.
It was permitted by Cotton, W. L. and has since transferred to Hughes Dan A. Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Catahoula, Jackson, Yegua, Cook Mountain.
Its lease has reported 32.1K barrels of oil and 148K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in February 2010. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
