The Railroad Commission assigns each lease to a field: the underground pool or formation it produces from. A field can cross county lines and hold leases from many operators. Leases in the same field often move together, because they draw on the same rock.
That makes the field a fair yardstick. If your lease fell sharply and the rest of Kelsey (Vxkbg. Consol.) did not, that is worth a question to your operator. If the whole field fell, the cause is probably geology or price, not your check.
The field trend above sums every lease in the field, so it is a good comparison for the lease page of any lease listed here.
FAQ
Questions about the Kelsey (Vxkbg. Consol.) field
What is the Kelsey (Vxkbg. Consol.) field?
A field is a name and number the Railroad Commission gives to a group of wells that draw from the same reservoir. The Kelsey (Vxkbg. Consol.) field is field 48630800 in district 04, with 33 producing leases in 3 Texas counties.
How much does the Kelsey (Vxkbg. Consol.) field produce?
It reported 18,258 barrels of oil and 661,400 mcf of gas in the 12 months through Jul 2026, from leases run by 6 operators, the largest being Merit Energy Company.
Can I use the field to check my own royalty?
If your stub names a lease in this field, the field trend shows whether output fell everywhere or only on your lease. A drop across the whole field usually comes from price or reservoir decline, so ask the operator about your lease only when it fell alone.
How current are these numbers?
The state publishes lease production two to three months after the month it covers, so Jul 2026 is the newest month here.
