WARD
WARD is a Texas oil lease in Dawson County, Railroad Commission district 8A, operated by Halvey Energy, LLC. It has 2 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from March 2013 to August 2026, totalling 52,898 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 $132K, with roughly $25K 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 57 barrels a month, about 29 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was June 2016, at 818 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.
