The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued July 17, 1992, permitted to 2,500 ft.
It was permitted by Roco Petroleum, Incorporated and has since transferred to D.K.D. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including B/Saddle Creek, Flippen Lime, Gunsight.
Its lease has reported 25.5K barrels of oil and 35 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in February 2024. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
