The ringed dot is this lease's well, where the Railroad Commission's map puts it. The other dots are wells and drilling permits of the last 24 months on the land around it; the counts are for everything in the picture, which is about 6 miles across. The thin brown lines are the original land surveys; where there is room, a survey carries its abstract number, the number deeds and division orders cite. Sources: Railroad Commission of Texas well layers, drilling permit files and survey lines, US Census Bureau county outlines, base map from USGS The National Map.

Other leases named David
2 leases share this name in district 8A. The Railroad Commission gives each gas well its own number and each oil lease another, so one unit often shows up as several of these.

From the state record
What owners ask about David
01When is the check for August 2026 due?
August 2026 is the newest month the state has posted for this lease. Texas law gives the payor until 60 days after the end of the sale month for oil and 90 for gas: the oil by Oct 30, 2026, unless the lease sets another time.
Source: Railroad Commission production reports; Texas Natural Resources Code §91.402.
The Texas Comptroller lists low producing leases for this lease, from Feb 1, 2016. Its file does not give the rate, so we compare your stub with the full 4.6%. That is for August 2026.
Two companies filed this lease's reports behind 2025 checks: Endeavor Energy Resources L.P. and Diamondback E&P LLC. An owner paid by more than one of them gets a form from each. The operator is not always the company that pays, so go by the names on the stubs.

We read every monthly report the Railroad Commission holds, back to January 1993, and this lease was already producing then. It filed 398 monthly reports through August 2026.

Each bar is what the lease’s oil and gas sold for that year, at that month’s prices. 2026 is only part of a year in the records, drawn lighter.
