The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 6, 2007, permitted to 8,147 ft.
It was permitted by Chevron U. S. A. Inc. and has since transferred to Burk Royalty CO. Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.

Its 3 leases have reported 211K barrels of oil and 443K mcf of gas since July 2007, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 15 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
