DYESS FRY UNIT
DYESS FRY UNIT is a Texas oil lease in Taylor County, Railroad Commission district 7B, operated by Stephens & Johnson Operating Co. It has 6 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from December 2015 to August 2026, totalling 97,406 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 $1.8M, with roughly $431K 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 611 barrels a month, about 102 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was April 2019, at 1,712 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.
