HILLS OF BEAR CREEK III UNIT
HILLS OF BEAR CREEK III UNIT is a Texas gas lease in Parker County, Railroad Commission district 09, operated by Xto Energy Inc. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from January 2011 to August 2026, totalling 1,515,691 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 $740K, with roughly $112K 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 4,724 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was November 2016, at 9,644 thousand cubic feet. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 17% 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.
