NEWMAN
NEWMAN is a Texas oil lease in Brown County, Railroad Commission district 7B, operated by Couch, Gilbert. It has 6 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from February 2006 to August 2026, totalling 11,857 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 $49K, with roughly $10K 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 13 barrels a month, about 2 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was March 2019, at 265 barrels. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 45% 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.
