The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended twice), issued January 14, 2013, permitted to 10,558 ft.
It was permitted by Apache Corporation and has since transferred to Formentera Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 186K barrels of oil and 1.35M mcf of gas since July 2013, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
