The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 4, 1997, permitted to 4,700 ft.
It was permitted by Burlington Resources Oil&Gas CO. and has since transferred to Oxy USA Wtp LP on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 2.59M barrels of oil and 398K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in June 2025. The lease carries 173 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
