[Get a Free Valuation](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/free-valuation/) or call or text [918-984-1645](tel:9189841645) Baldwin County is a crowded county and a quiet one for onshore minerals. More than two hundred wildcats have been drilled here since the late 1940s and nearly all of them were dry; the gas that matters is under Mobile Bay and the state water bottoms, and it does not run through a deed recorded in Bay Minette. What most Baldwin owners actually hold is non-producing acreage with an old lease or two in the chain, and we price it honestly as that. **What produces here.** Onshore Baldwin County produced 2,340 barrels of oil and almost no gas in August 2026 from 10 wells: 9 Phoenix Natural Resources II wells in the South Carlton Field-Wide Lower Tuscaloosa Unit north of Bay Minette, which made 2,109 barrels, and Pruet Production's Bryars-Smith 47 No. 1 at Hubbard's Landing, which made 231. Hughes Eastern plugged its Blacksher Smackover wells in October 2025. Offshore, W&T Offshore's state-waters wells in Bon Secour Bay, Lower Mobile Bay Mary Ann, and the North Central Gulf unit produced 1.52 billion cubic feet in August 2026, with another 166 million cubic feet allocated to Baldwin from the North Central Gulf unit; the Board reports that gas separately as offshore Baldwin. No new Baldwin County permit has been issued since 2021. Whatever you own here, producing royalties, non-producing acreage, or an inherited fraction split among family, we will identify it from whatever paperwork you have, value it off the actual wells and activity, and show you the reasoning with the offer. Free, no obligation, and no pressure: if keeping it is the right answer, we will say so. Inherited it?

Formations & Plays ## What produces here ### South Carlton Lower Tuscaloosa unit A field-wide waterflood unit in the Pilot sand north of Bay Minette, operated by Phoenix Natural Resources II, and the county's only steady onshore oil. ### Hubbard's Landing A one-well Pruet Production oil field on the Tensaw; the Blacksher Smackover wells next to it were plugged in October 2025. ### Mobile Bay and state-waters gas Bon Secour Bay, Lower Mobile Bay Mary Ann, and the North Central Gulf unit, deep Norphlet gas operated by W&T Offshore and reported by the Board as offshore Baldwin, not county production.

It depends on the wells and units actually touching your tract, their decline, and your decimal, and in Baldwin County most onshore tracts have no well at all while a few sit in the South Carlton unit, so county averages mislead badly. We value off the actual wells and activity and show the work, free. I live out of state. Does Alabama withhold anything when I sell Baldwin County minerals? Yes. Under Ala. Code 40-18-86, a nonresident seller of Alabama real property, which includes minerals, faces withholding at closing of 3 percent of the price for individuals and 4 percent for entities, unless an exemption applies. It is a prepayment of Alabama income tax, not an extra tax, and we show it on the settlement statement so there are no surprises. What taxes come off an Alabama royalty check? Alabama stacks two production taxes: the privilege tax, with an 8 percent headline rate that steps down to 6 percent for wells permitted after July 1, 1988 and 4 percent for oil wells at 25 barrels a day or less and gas wells at 200 Mcf a day or less, and a 2 percent production tax. Both come off before your royalty is figured. What does it cost me to sell? Nothing. Berlin pays all title work, document preparation, and recording costs. The offer you accept is the amount you receive. ## Before you sign anything in Baldwin County The things owners here most often wish they had read first.
