The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1996 and 2016, permitted to 12,280 ft.
It was permitted by Copestone Operating, LLC and has since transferred to Texas Oil And Gas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 1.58K barrels of oil and 832K mcf of gas since July 1996, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
