The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 20, 1981, permitted to 2,750 ft.
It was permitted by Delray Oil, Inc. and has since transferred to Taylor Oil & Gas Serv on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 445K barrels of oil and 36.9K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 19 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
