JONES
JONES is a Texas oil lease in Dickens County, Railroad Commission district 8A, operated by Schalk Oil Company, Inc. It has 2 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from April 1995 to August 2026, totalling 88,862 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 $525K, with roughly $101K 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 141 barrels a month, about 70 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was August 2018, at 586 barrels. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 22% 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.
