UNIVERSITY 38-20
UNIVERSITY 38-20 is a Texas oil lease in Winkler County, Railroad Commission district 08, operated by Energen Resources Corporation. It has 2 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from January 2012 to August 2026, totalling 199,453 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 $3.6M, with roughly $811K 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 1,217 barrels a month, about 608 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was February 2019, at 3,396 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.
