The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended twice), issued October 29, 2010, permitted to 10,442 ft.
It was permitted by Breitburn Operating L.P. and has since transferred to New Height Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 112K barrels of oil and 421K mcf of gas since May 2010, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
