HELLFIRE WEST B

HELLFIRE WEST B is a Texas oil lease in Upton County, Railroad Commission district 7C, operated by Apache Corporation. It has 2 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from March 2023 to August 2026, totalling 424,541 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 $19.5M, with roughly $6.8M 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 13,712 barrels a month, about 6,856 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was March 2025, at 23,308 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.
