CARTER
CARTER is a Texas oil lease in Concho County, Railroad Commission district 7C, operated by Geosurveys, Inc. It has 2 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from March 2014 to August 2026, totalling 30,241 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 $203K, with roughly $39K 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 68 barrels a month, about 34 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was January 2017, at 1,019 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.
