It was permitted by Enre Corp. and has since transferred to Origin Production Group LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 192K barrels of oil and 94 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
