The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1985 and 1994, permitted to 4,000 ft.
It was permitted by Finlay Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Deltex Minerals Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including Gunsite, Palo Pinto, Capps, Fry.
Its 3 leases have reported 13.7K barrels of oil and 80.2K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
