It was permitted by Hilltex Operating Company, LLC and has since transferred to Beehive Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 3 leases have reported 10.5K barrels of oil and 31.9K mcf of gas since October 2007, last reporting in March 2023. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
