WEST SEMINOLE SA UNIT
WEST SEMINOLE SA UNIT is a Texas oil lease in Gaines County, Railroad Commission district 8A, operated by Oxy USA Inc. It has 226 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from January 1993 to August 2026, totalling 18,361,366 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 $391.3M, with roughly $86.0M 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 109,621 barrels a month, about 485 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was January 2023, at 146,381 barrels. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 18% 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.
