WEST STATE
WEST STATE is a Texas gas lease in Pecos County, Railroad Commission district 08, operated by Sandridge Expl. And Prod., LLC. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from March 2010 to August 2026, totalling 2,273,040 thousand cubic feet. The lease is intermittent. 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 $225 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 33 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was June 2016, at 7,788 thousand cubic feet. 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.
