It was permitted by Harken Exploration Company and has since transferred to Gsi Oil & Gas Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 309K barrels of oil and 23.2K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in April 2018. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
