ELLIS
ELLIS is a Texas oil lease in Coleman County, Railroad Commission district 7B, operated by Valley Petroleum Company. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from May 2015 to August 2026, totalling 3,922 barrels. The lease is intermittent. 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 $20K, with roughly $4K 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 3 barrels a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was March 2017, at 121 barrels. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 100% 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.
