HILL UNIT 1

HILL UNIT 1 is a Texas oil lease in Martin County, Railroad Commission district 08, operated by Xto Energy Inc. It has 9 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from May 2024 to August 2026, totalling 1,631,828 barrels. The lease is intermittent. 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 $159.0M, with roughly $56.7M 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 108,742 barrels a month, about 12,082 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was July 2025, at 159,533 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.
