DAVIDSON 42A

DAVIDSON 42A is a Texas oil lease in Midland County, Railroad Commission district 08, operated by Ovintiv USA Inc. It has 3 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from February 2023 to August 2026, totalling 1,047,780 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 $16.8M, with roughly $5.3M 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 8,329 barrels a month, about 2,776 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was April 2023, at 106,366 barrels. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 17% 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.
