HIGG RANCH (SAN ANDRES) UNIT
HIGG RANCH (SAN ANDRES) UNIT is a Texas oil lease in Gaines County, Railroad Commission district 8A, operated by Gungoll, Carl E. Exploration LLC. It has 19 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from August 2021 to August 2026, totalling 306,573 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 $17.1M, with roughly $3.9M 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 5,884 barrels a month, about 310 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was May 2025, at 6,588 barrels. 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.
