NELSON UNIT A
NELSON UNIT A is a Texas oil lease in Dimmit County, Railroad Commission district 01, operated by SN Operating, LLC. It has 2 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from May 2016 to August 2026, totalling 301,730 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 $2.8M, with roughly $627K 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 780 barrels a month, about 390 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was October 2016, at 14,766 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.
