WEST BAY
WEST BAY is a Texas gas lease in Panola County, Railroad Commission district 06, operated by Ark-La-Tex Energy, L.L.C. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from October 2003 to August 2026, totalling 735,414 thousand cubic feet. The lease is currently producing. Fitting a decline curve to that history and pricing the remaining production at today's forward curve values a standard royalty share at about $2K, with roughly $399 expected over the next twelve months. Over the last twelve months on file it averaged 350 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was December 2019, at 2,813 thousand cubic feet. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 22% of what they went on to produce, and that measured error is the range shown on the page rather than a confidence of our own devising.
