MCMASTER
MCMASTER is a Texas oil lease in Wise County, Railroad Commission district 09, operated by Aruba Petroleum, Inc. It has 2 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from October 2006 to August 2026, totalling 15,388 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 $613K, with roughly $79K 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 7 barrels a month, about 3 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was February 2018, at 111 barrels. In our own backtest, leases producing at this rate are forecast to within about 100% 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.
