MCELROY RANCH
MCELROY RANCH is a Texas oil lease in Upton County, Railroad Commission district 7C, operated by Southwest Royalties, Inc. It has 2 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from June 2007 to August 2026, totalling 355,818 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 $286K, with roughly $44K 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 24 barrels a month, about 12 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was January 2018, at 900 barrels. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 45% 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.
