It was permitted by Encana Oil & Gas(USA) Inc. and has since transferred to Ovintiv USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 57.1K barrels of oil and 313K mcf of gas since May 2010, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
