The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 23, 1980, permitted to 2,000 ft.
It was permitted by Midwest Drilling & Prod. CO. and has since transferred to Shed Oil Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 6.24K barrels of oil and 106 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
