The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 3, 1987, permitted to 3,000 ft.
It was permitted by Mott Petroleum Corporation and has since transferred to Johanson Oil on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Carrizo, Wilcox, Navarro.
Its lease has reported 130 barrels of oil since January 1993, last reporting in April 2017. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
