UNIVERSITY 38-40 NCT1
UNIVERSITY 38-40 NCT1 is a Texas oil lease in Irion County, Railroad Commission district 7C, operated by Sem Operating Company LLC. It has 3 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from April 2026 to August 2026, totalling 1,500 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 $9.6M, with roughly $1.4M 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 669 barrels a month, about 223 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was April 2026, at 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.
