WELCH
WELCH is a Texas oil lease in Fisher County, Railroad Commission district 7B, operated by L.C.S. Production Company. It has 13 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from September 2021 to August 2026, totalling 63,525 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 $2.3M, with roughly $621K 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 975 barrels a month, about 75 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was November 2023, at 2,669 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.
