The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued February 11, 1997, permitted to 6,500 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco E & P Inc. and has since transferred to Continental Resources Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Lamar, Cherry Canyon.
Its lease has reported 202K barrels of oil and 2.43M mcf of gas since August 1996, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
