The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1996 and 2001, permitted to 2,955 ft.

It was permitted by Union Oil Company Of California and has since transferred to Basa Resources Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Wilcox, Pecan Gap, Austin Chalk, Woodbine.

Its 3 leases have reported 7.55M barrels of oil and 5.31M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 209 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
