Inspections and violations
What the Railroad Commission's field inspectors recorded at this operator's facilities. An inspection count tracks how much this operator runs in Texas; the rate beside it is what the inspectors found.

The five commonest of 10 rules cited against this operator.
What the Commission did
- Notice of Violation 15
- Referred to State-Managed Cleanup Program 1
From the Commission's inspection and violation files, covering Aug 1 2015 to Aug 7 2026. The two are separate files with no key between them, so the violations here are not a subset of the 17 inspections that found this operator out of compliance — they are counted from their own file.
Commission dockets
Cases the Railroad Commission opened naming this operator. Most dockets are applications — commonly for an exception to the statewide spacing rule — and a small number are compliance orders.
| Type | What the Commission's remarks call it | Dockets |
|---|---|---|
| A37 | Rule 37 spacing exception | 14 |
| ENF | Enforcement and penalties | 2 |
| 7A8 | Rule 37 or 38 exception | 1 |
| NCA | no published meaning for this code | 1 |
| PPP | Compliance order | 1 |
The five commonest of 8 types this operator carries.
From the Commission's docket file published 2025-02-05. It is the only copy on the Commission's link, so nothing filed after that date appears here. The dates shown are the earliest and latest the record carries — 18 Jan 2002 to 15 Mar 2016. The file holds eight date fields per docket and the Commission publishes no key to which is which, so none is named here.
Leases
Every lease is a page of its own: the monthly volumes the state published, multiplied by the monthly price. Value is lifetime, from Jan 1993.
