SAU 20-2
SAU 20-2 is a Texas oil lease in Reagan County, Railroad Commission district 7C, operated by Mariner Energy, Inc. It has 7 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from July 1998 to August 2026, totalling 199,144 barrels. 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 $283K, with roughly $51K 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 83 barrels a month, about 12 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was August 2018, at 1,021 barrels. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 45% 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.
