The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 8, 2013, permitted to 17,000 ft.
It was permitted by Burlington Resources O & G CO LP and has since transferred to Verdun Oil & Gas LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 638K barrels of oil and 1.39M mcf of gas since July 2012, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
