The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits (amended once) between 1992 and 1996, permitted to 12,300 ft.

It was permitted by Ginger Petroleum Company, Inc. and has since transferred to Showdown Operating Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 19.8K barrels of oil and 24.3K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in October 2021. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
