The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 5, 1984, permitted to 7,450 ft.
It was permitted by Amoco Production CO.-Levelland and has since transferred to Royal Oryx OG LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including San Andres, Glorieta, Tubb, Wolfcamp.
Its lease has reported 111K barrels of oil and 26.6K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
