It was permitted by Wichita Water LLC and has since transferred to Pioneer Natural Res. USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 1.17M barrels of oil and 2.84M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 116 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
