Supplemental Information on Oil and Natural Gas Operations (Unaudited) | Note 17 – Supplemental Information on Oil and Natural Gas Operations (Unaudited) The Company’s oil and natural gas reserves are attributable solely to properties within the United States. Discontinued operations information comprising of the RNR interests which were not acquired in the Transactions have not been included in the Supplemental Information for Crude Oil Producing Activities for each period presented below. Capitalized oil and natural gas costs Aggregate capitalized costs related to oil and natural gas production activities with applicable accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization are as follows: As of December 31, 2021 2020 (in thousands) Proved royalty interest $ 325,512 $ 319,487 Unproved royalty interests 27,710 32,463 Accumulated amortization (159,678 ) (144,445 ) Net royalty interests in oil and natural gas properties $ 193,544 $ 207,505 Costs incurred in oil and natural gas activities Costs incurred in oil and natural gas property acquisitions, exploration and development activities are as follows: December 31, 2021 2020 2019 (in thousands) Acquisition costs: Proved properties $ 485 $ 1,066 $ 4,011 Unproved properties 787 1,351 18,750 Total $ 1,272 $ 2,417 $ 22,761 Results of operations from oil and natural gas producing activities The following table sets forth the revenues and expenses related to the production and sale of oil and natural gas. It does not include any interest costs or general and administrative costs and, therefore, is not necessarily indicative of the contribution to the net operating results of the Company’s oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids operations. December 31, 2021 2020 2019 (in thousands) Royalty income $ 72,838 $ 40,081 $ 68,463 Production and ad valorem taxes (3,935 ) (2,807 ) (4,262 ) Marketing and transportation (1,752 ) (1,993 ) (2,396 ) Depletion (15,233 ) (14,103 ) (12,737 ) Income tax expense (4,059 ) (589 ) (3,918 ) Results of operations from oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids $ 47,859 $ 20,589 $ 45,150 Oil and Natural Gas Reserves Proved oil and gas reserve estimates as of December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 were prepared by Ryder Scott Company, L.P. independent petroleum engineers. Proved reserves were estimated in accordance with guidelines established by the SEC, which require that reserve estimates be prepared under existing economic and operating conditions based upon the 12-month There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved oil and natural gas reserves. Oil and natural gas reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be precisely measured and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. Results of drilling, testing and production subsequent to the date of the estimate may justify revision of such estimate. Accordingly, reserve estimates are often different from the quantities of oil and natural gas that are ultimately recovered. The changes in estimated proved reserves are as follows: Oil Natural Gas Natural Gas Liquids Total (MBbls) (MMcf) (MBbls) (MBOE) Proved Developed and Undeveloped Reserves: As of December 31, 2018 15,212 56,185 3,163 27,740 Purchase of reserves in place 32 70 12 56 Extensions and discoveries 215 553 71 378 Revisions of previous estimates (1,984 ) (6,950 ) (230 ) (3,373 ) Production (879 ) (3,588 ) (297 ) (1,774 ) As of December 31, 2019 12,596 46,270 2,719 23,027 Purchase of reserves in place 62 62 - 72 Extensions and discoveries 34 797 12 179 Revisions of previous estimates (2,114 ) 4,935 (298 ) (1,590 ) Production (836 ) (3,528 ) (247 ) (1,671 ) As of December 31, 2020 9,742 48,536 2,186 20,017 Purchase of reserves in place 22 34 5 33 Extensions and discoveries 326 1,777 122 744 Revisions of previous estimates (1,571 ) (3,109 ) 159 (1,930 ) Production (756 ) (3,801 ) (230 ) (1,620 ) As of December 31, 2021 7,763 43,437 2,242 17,245 Proved Developed Reserves December 31, 2019 3,900 18,016 1,230 8,133 December 31, 2020 3,291 19,755 1,164 7,747 December 31, 2021 2,738 19,098 1,183 7,104 Proved Undeveloped Reserves: December 31, 2019 8,696 28,254 1,489 14,894 December 31, 2020 6,451 28,781 1,022 12,270 December 31, 2021 5,025 24,339 1,059 10,141 Revisions represent changes in previous reserves estimates, either upward or downward, resulting from new information normally obtained from development drilling and production history or resulting from a change in economic factors, such as commodity prices, operating costs, or development costs. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company’s negative revisions of previous estimates of 1,930 MBOE resulted primarily due to a change in development timing. The purchase of reserves in place of 33 MBOE were due to multiple acquisitions located within the Eagle Ford Shale. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company’s negative revisions of previous estimates of 1,590 MBOE resulted primarily from reducing the existing PUD locations by 269 wells due to a change in development timing and lower commodity prices. The purchase of reserves in place of 72 MBOE were due to multiple acquisitions located within the Eagle Ford Shale. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company’s negative revisions of previous estimates of 3,373 MBOE resulted primarily from reducing the existing PUD locations by 314 wells due to a change in development timing and lower commodity prices. The purchase of reserves in place of 56 MBOE were due to multiple acquisitions primarily located within the Eagle Ford Shale. Standardized Measure of Discounted Cash Flows The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows are based on the unweighted average, first-day-of-the-month price. The projections should not be viewed as realistic estimates of future cash flows, nor should the “standardized measure” be interpreted as representing current value to the Company. Material revisions to estimates of proved reserves may occur in the future; development and production of the reserves may not occur in the periods assumed; actual prices realized are expected to vary significantly from those used; and actual costs may vary. The following table sets forth the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows attributable to the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves as of December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019: December 31, 2021 2020 2019 (in thousands) Future cash inflows $ 708,450 $ 476,315 $ 882,076 Future production costs (51,256 ) (41,770 ) (70,956 ) Future income tax expense (42,787 ) (6,431 ) (48,040 ) Future net cash flows 614,407 428,114 763,080 10% discount to reflect timing of cash flows (267,005 ) (176,302 ) (304,730 ) Standardized measure of discounted cash flows $ 347,402 $ 251,812 $ 458,350 In the table below the average first-day-of–the-month price for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids is presented, all utilized in the computation of future cash inflows: December 31, 2021 2020 2019 Unweighted Arithmetic Average First-Day-of-the-Month Prices Oil (per Bbl) $ 66.56 $ 39.57 $ 55.69 Natural gas (per Mcf) $ 3.60 $ 1.99 $ 2.58 Natural gas liquids (per Bbl) $ 25.96 $ 12.27 $ 13.37 Principal changes in the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows attributable to the Company’s proved reserves are as follows: December 31, 2021 2020 2019 (in thousands) Standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows at the beginning of the period $ 251,812 $ 458,350 $ 608,870 Purchase of minerals in place 1,026 2,134 1,256 Sales of oil and natural gas, net of production costs (65,181 ) (35,281 ) (59,949 ) Extensions and discoveries 15,048 1,462 9,711 Net changes in prices and production costs 186,943 (148,892 ) (91,386 ) Revisions of previous quantity estimates (29,572 ) (72,896 ) (92,479 ) Divestiture of reserves - - - Net changes in income taxes (20,810 ) 25,419 20,613 Accretion of discount 25,553 44,279 65,863 Net changes in timing of production and other (17,417 ) (22,763 ) (4,149 ) Standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows at the end of the period $ 347,402 $ 251,812 $ 458,350 |
