The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 3, 1981, permitted to 3,890 ft.
It was permitted by Seatex Energy Corporation and has since transferred to Viola Prod. Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 4 leases have reported 4.23M barrels of oil and 603 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 173 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
