The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 17, 1985, permitted to 10,470 ft.
It was permitted by Union Oil Company Of California and has since transferred to De Central Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Strawn, Woodford, Devonian, Silurian (undifferentiated).
Its 2 leases have reported 347 barrels of oil and 404K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
