BALLARD, SARAH
BALLARD, SARAH is a Texas gas lease in Wise County, Railroad Commission district 09, operated by Wise Exploration. It has 1 wellbore on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from January 1993 to August 2026, totalling 509,561 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 $7K, with roughly $915 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 18 thousand cubic feet a month. Its strongest month on the record we hold was December 2017, at 457 thousand cubic feet. 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.
