MENCHACA
MENCHACA is a Texas oil lease in Medina County, Railroad Commission district 01, operated by 1859 Operating LLC. It has 9 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from April 2024 to August 2026, totalling 1,982 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 $153K, with roughly $30K 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 54 barrels a month, about 6 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was April 2024, at 203 barrels. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 45% 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.
