The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued November 9, 1999, permitted to 5,000 ft.
It was permitted by Sullivan, Hollis R. Inc. and has since transferred to Canan Mowrey Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Merkel Lm, Coleman Junction, Stockwether Lm, Tannehill.
Its lease has reported 81.4K barrels of oil and 393 mcf of gas since September 1999, last reporting in December 2017. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
