Lease offers in Pecos County

My my family owns mineral rights in section 15, Blk 112

and also section 11 Blk 112. Does anyone know what lease offers are going for?

XTO has offered $1,500 per net mineral acre and 1/4 royalty for section 15. Is this the going rate?

For what it is worth, we leased mineral rights in Section 9 Block 48 in Pecos County in February 2017. 3 year lease offers started at $1,200 per acre and ended up at $6,000 after six months of back and forth. Highly recommend using a lawyer to negotiate a lease contract.

L John brings up a very good point about lease bonuses in Block 48, but you should know that there is a LOT more activity and success in that block versus the minimal activity in Block 112.

He is dead on as to the need for a good lawyer.

The 25% royalty is a good number and going rate for that factor.

Agree

Also happy to provide drillinginfo snapshot of activity if helpfull too

I believe Block 48 borders Block OW ..to the west? Has anyone heard of drilling interest in Block OW?

I would love to see that, if possible!

Over 30 horizontal permits in Block OW over past 1000 days - mostly by Diamondback and Brigham. East - West oriented laterals in ranging from 5000' to 10,000' in length.

Thank you VERY much for sending this map and news on drilling interest in Block OW. Our dad inherited 320 mineral acres ( we think!) there - "an undivided one/fourth interest in the west one/half of Survey 86, Block OW" - am confused about size of "Surveys" and location with Block OW, and if Block OW is entire middle part of map attached ..we were approached by one or two companies earlier in 2017 we believed were trying to lease from us to flip the lease. Thank you so much for all of your help as we unravel puzzle of exact location/interest, etc. !!!!

In this case I feel the name Survey is being used instead of Section....Possibly you have the minerals in W/2 of Section 86/Block OW/A-6018. A Section/Survey is more or less in the neighborhood of 640 acres...So you have minerals in 1/2 section=320 acres.
