KUNKEL
KUNKEL is a Texas oil lease in Young County, Railroad Commission district 09, operated by Guidance Oil Developers,Inc.(1). It has 6 wellbores on file with the Commission. Reported production runs from December 2015 to August 2026, totalling 31,730 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 $180K, with roughly $35K 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 51 barrels a month, about 8 per wellbore. Its strongest month on the record we hold was November 2016, at 1,669 barrels. 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.
