CARTER
CARTER is a Texas gas lease in Tyler County, Railroad Commission district 06, operated by Ergon Energy Partners, L.P. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from May 2004 to August 2026, totalling 930,423 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 $1.5M, with roughly $513K 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 3,250 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was September 2023, at 32,642 thousand cubic feet. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 17% 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.
