COTHES
COTHES is a Texas oil lease in Andrews County, Railroad Commission district 8A, operated by Seaboard Operating Co. It has 3 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from February 2002 to August 2026, totalling 102,658 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 $779K, with roughly $219K 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 341 barrels a month, about 114 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was August 2023, at 720 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.
