MORO CREEK
MORO CREEK is a Texas gas lease in Dimmit County, Railroad Commission district 01, operated by Verdun Oil & Gas LLC. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from May 2024 to August 2026, totalling 102,501 thousand cubic feet. 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 $1.6M, with roughly $939K 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 4,192 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was February 2025, at 13,749 thousand cubic feet. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 17% 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.
