BELL 88
BELL 88 is a Texas oil lease in Upton County, Railroad Commission district 08, operated by Silver Creek Oil & Gas, LLC. It has 2 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from April 2014 to August 2026, totalling 87,878 barrels. 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 $746K, with roughly $142K 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 121 barrels a month, about 60 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was July 2016, at 1,661 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.
