The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued January 4, 1993, permitted to 12,500 ft.

It was permitted by Maersk Energy Inc. and has since transferred to Mineral Technologies Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Saratoga, Blossom, Austin Chalk.

Its lease has reported 231K barrels of oil and 1.8M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
