The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 18, 1986, permitted to 4,250 ft.
It was permitted by American Fossil Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Jjb Operating CO. on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 2.11K barrels of oil and 24.8K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
