LAVACA -38-
LAVACA -38- is a Texas oil lease in Glasscock County, Railroad Commission district 08, operated by Energen Resources Corporation. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from October 2014 to August 2026, totalling 34,045 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 $653K, with roughly $94K 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 39 barrels a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was September 2016, at 1,164 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.
