The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 15, 2011, permitted to 10,883 ft.
It was permitted by Mid-States Operating Company and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including San Andres, Clear Fork, Spraberry, Strawn.
Its lease has reported 441K barrels of oil and 998K mcf of gas since December 2009, last reporting volume in December 2025. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Sep 12, 2012. Cased hole. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
