Sell Mineral Rights In Reeves County Texas

Reeves County, Texas is in an oil and gas producing region called the Delaware basin, which is the western portion of the Permian basin. It's capital city is Pecos. Oil and gas wells have been drilled there for several decades. Some people who own mineral rights in Reeves County have earned nice royalties from time to time. And selling mineral rights rather than holding on is an option. Each mineral owner's needs are different.

Recently, Apache Corporation drilled several wells in Reeves County and has established production of both oil and gas. So, what is the best position for a mineral owner? Should you elect to sell mineral rights you own or hold on for a payday? There is no simple answer. Mineral rights include the rights to oil and gas royalties. Which may or may not occur on your tract. For more on selling royalty rights (sell royalties -- the right to enjoy income from oil and gas production), here is more info.

The oilfield is fraught with risk and field development can take decades. As drilling progresses, production history might not be as rosy as first thought. Or, the price of oil or gas could crash, making rapid development cease. Politics can hamper development. Even competing energy sources, such as solar and wind, are gaining, and fast. Many risks are part of the picture. So, whether selling mineral rights or not is the right decision is a tough call. But the time required to earn significant money can make it an easy decision if one needs cash today. By holding out, there is no way to know if and when your tract will get drilled. It could easily be 20 years or even longer. And if nearby drilling produces poor results, it could condemn your acreage of virtually or even totally worthless. Risks in Reeves County are every real, and include more geological risk than in other areas due to a more complex local geology.

For mineral owners who want or need some extra cash for this or that, selling mineral rights in Reeves County, Texas can offer a solution. One can even sell a small portion of what is owned and keep the rest as a gamble that it will some day pay off even bigger. But, it can be a painless solution to raise cash money and it can be done pretty quickly.

Selling royalty rights for cash money is also available to those who own what is called a non-producing royalty interest (NPRI). The existence of NPRI rights is not than uncommon in Texas, including Reeves County.

By the way, we can also help you with selling mineral rights in counties surrounding Reeves County, Texas -- Culberson County, Jeff Davis County, Pecos County, Ward County, Winkler County and Loving County. Also, Lea County and Eddy County in New Mexico.

For those wanting some extra cash from a lump sum cash settlement, contact us if you are interested in discussing selling mineral rights in Reeves County Texas!

What Is The 'Going Rate" To Lease Or Sell Mineral Rights?

Regarding leasing mineral rights for an oil and gas lease or selling mineral rights, it is human nature to ask 'What is the going rate in my area?' And the answer is 'whatever you can get.' Not trying to be flippant but relying on a 'going rate' can cost you a fortune. Only luck and fate are really in control. Just because somebody near you got a certain amount per acre doesn't mean you will. There are many factors that come into play. It might even be that you can't get an offer for your mineral rights. Again, each tract has its own certain set of circumstances. I have seen people get an offer, a good offer, and hold out because somebody nearby got more and end up getting nothing because the offer disappeared. The oil business is very fickle, be careful of falling into this trap. And in certain states, such as Texas and others, the mineral owner can effectively get 'cut out' of enjoying royalties for a long time and sometimes forever. It's impossible to cover all situations one might run across. Sometimes, a mineral owner lucks out by holding out for more; just remember than any offer must be carefully considered because it might be the last. There is no rule or law governing what one might get for an oil and gas lease or to sell mineral rights. It's just a free market, so, we are back to the answer being 'whatever you can get!' And, in fact, unlike real estate, prices paid for an oil and gas lease or an amount paid to sell mineral rights is not public information. In certain states, the amount paid for state leases is tracked but that does not mean one can get that same amount for his tract. I wish it were more definitive, but it's not!

In areas with a lot of competition for an oil and gas lease from different oil companies, a rate range is sometimes discernible but it varies widely! Nothing is certain in oil and gas. Also, the smaller the tract, the less leverage one has. It's a huge challenge and impossible to 'know' what is best to do. But try not to fall into the trap of relying on any 'going rate.' As for selling mineral rights, same thing applies, each tract is different and a buyer is going to analyze it with many factors in mind to assess the mineral rights value. With all of this in mind, it's best to consult an expert, someone with many years of experience, regarding value. Good luck!

P.S. Lastly, a 'signing bonus,' a 'lease bonus,' is only one factor to consider. There are other important parts to an oil and gas lease other than the amount paid to sign. If you are not experienced in oil and gas matters, hire a pro!

Selling Mineral Rights In Mississippi

Sometimes one has cash needs for various things in life. An option for landowners and mineral owners (some people only own mineral rights and no surface rights) is selling mineral rights. Mineral rights owners have the right to receive oil royalties and gas royalties from oil wells and/or gas wells drilled on their land or a drilling unit which is pooled with their land. This right has a cash value. It is a lump sum cash settlement for potential future royalties and may be a minor amount or a large amount if in an area with high potential for oil and gas production.

We buy mineral rights to add to our significant mineral portfolio in the United States. Over time, we have made this 'work,' meaning we're not 'in the red' overall because we buy a lot of properties to spread risk. Not every deal turns out good for us. And those lucky mineral owners came out smelling like a rose! It's a crapshoot. Even in large fields where a lot of wells are productive, often, the well does not produce as much as anticipated and we lose money on the purchase. On others, we do well. It works for us due to owning thousands of acres across many states. No particular deal will break us. So, the reverse of that is a mineral owner having one tract... that is having all your eggs in one basket. Some people choose to sell to take the sure thing -- cash. It's also possible, depending on size of the tract, for us to buy a portion of what one owns. You can sell and take the cash for the part you sell and gamble on the rest that it turns out good down the way.

SELL MISSISSIPPI MINERAL RIGHTS

We might be interested in buying your mineral rights in any part of Mississippi. If they are producing, meaning you are receiving oil royalties or gas royalties, you can sell oil royalties and we can definitely buy them. If non-producing, give us a call, as well, we might be interested. At this time, we are primarily interested in areas which have some potential for the Tuscaloosa Marine Shale. Several oil companies are interested in the area and have acquired oil and gas leases and have drilled some wells -- Encana, Goodrich, Halcon, Sanchez, EOG, etc. This potential fairway lies in southwest Mississippi counties and we are primarily interested in Wilkinson County, Amite County and Pike County. Possibly a bit of southern Walthall County. Our focus at this time is for those who wish to sell Amite County MS mineral rights and those who wish to sell Wilkinson County, MS mineral rights. If you are interested in selling mineral rights in Mississippi, please give me a call, I'll be happy to work with you on it.

I Won't Sell, I Will Just Keep Leasing It

I just got a phone call from a man who is in need of raising significant money quickly and wanted to know "Who buys mineral rights?" It was in a shale play. And I said I'd buy them. At the right price. After a lengthy discussion, I found out his mineral rights are mortgaged (along with his land). I asked him how much the balance is. He told me and said "And that's why I want to sell my mineral rights, pay off the loan and use the rest to do some other things."

Based on his balance owed, how many acres he had, the location within the shale play, the royalty percentage in the oil & gas lease and some other factors, I was immediately taken aback. After having spent considerable time with him during the "interview," I was aghast that he thought his mineral rights would bring that much money. I knew they wouldn't. Not even close! So, I clarified that he was, indeed, hoping to get that much money, and then said "I sure wish I could help you out here but we're going to be much too far apart. They are not worth near that amount of money. The market won't pay near that much." And then I explained that the market is the barometer. Minerals are worth what the market says they are worth, in general. Sometimes, you can't even find a buyer, but when you can, a sale will never be for several times what the market is for like minerals. Unless the buyer is a buffoon!

The man agreed with all of that and I could tell he was disappointed. But, that was pretty much the end of it, I couldn't help him.

He then said that he'd just keep signing an oil & gas lease on them every five years and enjoy the lease bonus. I knew that he had suffered medical problems and needed money, so, I politely told him not to count on more lease bonus money, it might not come around again. I told him he could just sit and hope that the current Lessee drills and hits. But to realize that there is risk. I then pointed him to this site -- http://www.whysellmineralrights.com -- it has a pretty comprehensive discussion of the risks involved and factors to consider, whether to sell mineral rights or not. We then ended the conversation amicably and I wished him well.

I suppose the moral of this story is that those thinking of selling mineral rights need to understand market value, and to never count on lease bonus money coming around on a regular basis. Because more than likely, it won't. Good luck, mineral owners!

How to sell mineral rights in Red River Parish, Louisiana

Red River Parish, Louisiana is undergoing development of the Haynesville shale, an oil and gas formation from 11,000 to 13,000 feet subsurface. Many wells have been drilled over the past few years. There are some sweet spots in Red River Parish but there are also some bad spots. Roughly the eastern 25% has not turned out very well. But in other areas of the parish, decent to prolific production has been found. The production is dry natural gas; there is no oil produced. If oil were found in the Haynesville shale, it would help, as the price of crude oil relative to natural gas is much higher. Natural gas prices have been low for three years now.

By the way, persistent rumors that there is oil production below the Haynesville shale are just that. We have seen no verification of this. For now, that's all it is, a rumor. Rumors are common in the oilfield.

Those who own mineral rights and royalty rights in the Haynesville shale are likely subject to an oil and gas lease owned by Encana. There are some leases owned by Chesapeake, Petrohawk, Shell (SWEPI), Forest Oil and QEP Resources (Questar). Encana and Shell have a joint operating agreement in an area of mutual interest. Encana/Shell/SWEPI, by far, has more acreage in Red River parish than any other operator.

Some people want or need cash, for any number of reasons and selling mineral rights can bring a big cash payday. For many, it's the only asset they have that has a lot of value. And selling mineral rights (sell royalties) doesn't affect their land ownership, if they own the land. Plus, in Louisiana, a sale of mineral rights creates a servitude, and this servitude creates prescription. Which means that if drilling does not occur within ten years, the mineral rights revert to the person who owns the land, the landowner. So, if you sell mineral rights in Red River parish, they won't be gone forever. In other states, selling mineral rights means they are gone for good.

SELLING MINERAL RIGHTS IN RED RIVER PARISH LOUISIANA

Here are the steps to take if you are considering selling mineral rights in Red River Parish.
  1. Consider whether you should sell or not. (See Why Sell Mineral Rights.)
  2. If you decide to sell mineral rights or if you own only royalty rights, to sell royalty rights (sell royalties) in Red River parish, you need to gather some information.

  3. You need to make a deal with a mineral rights buyer in Red River parish who buys mineral rights and buys royalty rights. (Here is a mineral rights buyer.) Be prepared to furnish copies of documents if asked.
It's not a difficult thing to do, especially if you have a courteous, professional mineral buyer with a lot of experience, such as the one suggested above! For additional information about selling mineral rights or selling royalty rights in Red River parish (sell royalties), it's suggested you review the information, How To Sell Mineral Rights In Red River Parish Louisiana.
