JESTER
JESTER is a Texas gas lease in Moore County, Railroad Commission district 10, operated by Scout Energy Management LLC. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from June 2022 to August 2026, totalling 154,076 thousand cubic feet. 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 $394K, with roughly $66K 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 2,864 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was August 2022, at 5,130 thousand cubic feet. 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.
