The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 28, 1983, permitted to 2,990 ft.
It was permitted by Silver Falls Petroleum Corp. and has since transferred to Johanson Oil on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 6.87K barrels of oil and 86 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
