ROITSCH "A"
ROITSCH "A" is a Texas oil lease in Bastrop County, Railroad Commission district 03, operated by Melton, Joe, DRLG. Co., Inc. It has 2 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from January 1993 to August 2026, totalling 35,332 barrels. The lease is shut in. 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 $11K, with roughly $2K 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 1 barrels a month, about 1 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was August 2019, at 239 barrels.
