MILKY WAY
MILKY WAY is a Texas oil lease in Robertson County, Railroad Commission district 05, operated by Wildfire Energy Operating LLC. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from February 2025 to August 2026, totalling 138,383 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 $9.0M, with roughly $3.7M 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 11,038 barrels a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was June 2025, at 24,508 barrels. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 18% 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.
