The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1984 and 1990, permitted to 2,300 ft.
It was permitted by Explorer Oil & Gas, Inc. and has since transferred to Reneau Oil CO. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Panhandle Lime, Brown Dolomite, Arkosic Wash, Granite Wash.
Its 2 leases have reported 30.6K barrels of oil and 101K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 13 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
