KECK
KECK is a Texas gas lease in Palo Pinto County, Railroad Commission district 09, operated by Jilpetco, Inc. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from August 2006 to August 2026, totalling 463 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 $2K, with roughly $413 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 3 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was March 2024, at 31 thousand cubic feet. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 100% 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.
