It was permitted by Sun Exploration & Production CO. and has since transferred to Cooper Oil & Gas LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 172K barrels of oil and 3.56K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
