COWDEN 46

COWDEN 46 is a Texas oil lease in Midland County, Railroad Commission district 08, operated by Parsley Energy Operations, LLC. It has 3 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from May 2014 to August 2026, totalling 24,537 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 $883K, with roughly $130K 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 44 barrels a month, about 15 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was June 2018, at 446 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.
