The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 17, 1979, permitted to 2,400 ft.
It was permitted by S & B Enterprises, Inc. and has since transferred to Bjg Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.15M barrels of oil and 15 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 678 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
