CHATO
CHATO is a Texas gas lease in La Salle County, Railroad Commission district 01, operated by Escondido Resources GP, LLC. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from January 2006 to August 2026, totalling 376,417 thousand cubic feet. The lease is shut in. Fitting a decline curve to that history and pricing the remaining production at today's forward curve values the whole lease — a 100% undivided interest — at about $461, with roughly $58 expected over the next twelve months. An individual royalty owner receives their own decimal interest times that figure. Over the last twelve months on file it averaged 1 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was August 2017, at 2,844 thousand cubic feet.
