The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended twice), issued May 5, 1995, permitted to 4,530 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco E & P Inc. and has since transferred to Torrent Oil LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 107K barrels of oil and 54K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 18 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
