It was permitted by Stanolind Operating Corp. and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 84.9K barrels of oil and 138K mcf of gas since July 1997, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
