The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 2, 2012, permitted to 12,000 ft.
It was permitted by Berry Oil Comp. and has since transferred to Xto Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Yates, San Andres, Clear Fork, Spraberry.
Its lease has reported 406K barrels of oil and 1.65M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 14 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
