WHEAT
WHEAT is a Texas oil lease in Brazos County, Railroad Commission district 05, operated by Wildfire Energy Operating LLC. It has 2 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from August 2024 to August 2026, totalling 313,111 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 $11.6M, with roughly $5.1M 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 12,483 barrels a month, about 6,242 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was November 2024, at 25,504 barrels. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 18% 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.
