The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 19, 1986, permitted to 2,400 ft.
It was permitted by Cigna Energy Resources, Inc. and has since transferred to Smith Pipe Of Abilene on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Coleman Junction, Flippen "A" Ls, Lower Hope Ls, Gunsight.
Its lease has reported 16.2K barrels of oil and 34 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in April 2000. The lease carries 11 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
