The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued April 9, 1999, permitted to 7,435 ft.

It was permitted by Mitchell Energy Corporation and has since transferred to Bkv Barnett LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 4.4K barrels of oil and 1.11M mcf of gas since July 1999, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
