YOUNG-HAYS
YOUNG-HAYS is a Texas oil lease in Hockley County, Railroad Commission district 8A, operated by Wheeler Operating Corporation. It has 8 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from May 1996 to August 2026, totalling 241,703 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 $2.1M, with roughly $483K 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 702 barrels a month, about 88 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was May 2019, at 2,321 barrels. 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.
