BISHOP

BISHOP is a Texas oil lease in Nolan County, Railroad Commission district 08, operated by Devon Energy Production Co, L.P. It has 2 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from September 2013 to August 2026, totalling 179,019 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 $567K, with roughly $106K 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 138 barrels a month, about 69 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was August 2017, at 2,094 barrels. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 22% 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.
