UTL 28-17
UTL 28-17 is a Texas oil lease in Ward County, Railroad Commission district 08, operated by Jagged Peak Energy LLC. It has 3 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from May 2015 to August 2026, totalling 1,082,936 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 $9.2M, with roughly $4.5M 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 9,032 barrels a month, about 3,011 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was December 2024, at 43,167 barrels. 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.
