I received an offer from Texas Resources Group to buy minerals in Upton County. The area is historically a very low producer and the offer reflected 15 months of past production. I would not sell at a high offer but I considered that to be unusually low. I have gotten offers from others for 100X what they offered.
The punch line here is that there are 6 new wells on the property, each of which have been producing 30K bbl/month since September but the Operator has not begun to pay royalties. I know that and maybe TRC knows that maybe they don’t. If they do know it, that’s not someone I want to do business with. If they don’t know it, that’s not someone I want to do business with. Just a friendly reminder to keep track of what’s going on with your minerals if you’re taking offers to purchase them.
