The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued May 20, 2019, permitted to 16,000 ft.
It was permitted by Tall City Operations Iii LLC and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 657K barrels of oil and 1.59M mcf of gas since December 2019, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
