UL 18 BENNY WEST E
UL 18 BENNY WEST E is a Texas gas lease in Ward County, Railroad Commission district 08, operated by Apache Corporation. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from January 2025 to August 2026, totalling 413,518 thousand cubic feet. 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 $17.4M, with roughly $3.7M 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 29,901 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was August 2025, at 49,299 thousand cubic feet. 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.
