The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1997 and 2000, permitted to 11,286 ft.
It was permitted by Altura Energy Ltd. and has since transferred to Shell Western E&P Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Wichita-Albany, Wolfcamp, Pennsylvanian, Devonian.
Its 4 leases have reported 2.91M barrels of oil and 19.3M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 55 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
