It was permitted by El Paso E & P Company, L. P. and has since transferred to Verdun Oil EF II LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 3.51M barrels of oil and 6.86M mcf of gas since December 2010, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 42 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
