VIPER 53-47 W
VIPER 53-47 W is a Texas gas lease in Loving County, Railroad Commission district 08, operated by Petro-Hunt Permian, LLC. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from July 2025 to August 2026, totalling 28,593 thousand cubic feet. The lease is intermittent. 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 $1.2M, with roughly $223K 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 375 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was April 2026, at 3,745 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.
