The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 31, 1981, permitted to 5,315 ft.
It was permitted by Cain, L. L. & White, Wayne R. and has since transferred to Ring Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 86.7K barrels of oil and 30.9K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in December 2024. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
