WARD
WARD is a Texas gas lease in Sutton County, Railroad Commission district 7C, operated by Meridian Oil Inc. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from March 1995 to August 2026, totalling 233,106 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 $464, with roughly $70 expected over the next twelve months. Over the last twelve months on file it averaged 205 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was April 2026, at 895 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.
