JOHNSTON
JOHNSTON is a Texas gas lease in Jack County, Railroad Commission district 09, operated by 3-R Production, Inc. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from July 2003 to August 2026, totalling 315,508 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 the whole lease — a 100% undivided interest — at about $61K, with roughly $9K 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 415 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was October 2021, at 608 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.
