CHAPEL HILL 6
CHAPEL HILL 6 is a Texas gas lease in Smith County, Railroad Commission district 06, operated by Breitburn Operating L.P. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from February 2020 to August 2026, totalling 2,978,097 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 $2.9M, with roughly $598K 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 17,665 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was March 2020, at 249,761 thousand cubic feet. 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.
