Greene County got one taste of the coalbed methane business and three tastes of the shale business, and none of them stuck. The Black Warrior coal gas fields that pay thousands of royalties in Tuscaloosa County thin out before they reach Eutaw, and the deep shale tests that briefly made Greene interesting around 2008 were dry. What is left is mineral ownership without wells, which is still worth identifying properly and valuing honestly.

**What produces here.** Nothing today. The State Oil and Gas Board lists 59 wells in Greene County and none producing. Taurus Exploration's Taylor Creek Unit, 29 coalbed methane wells permitted in 1990 and 1991 in the north end of the county, reported 66 million cubic feet in 1992, 39 million in 1993, and almost nothing in 1994 before it was plugged, and BWNR's and Huber Energy's 2009 wells in the same section were dry or cancelled. The shale wildcats, Energen's Poole 1-5 in 2007, Chesapeake's Lamb 1-3H to 11,560 feet in 2008, and Hillwood Energy's Tate 9-4 and Caldwell 19-15 in 2010 and 2011, were all dry and abandoned, and no permit has been issued in the county since March 2011. The Board's production database has no Greene County entry for August 2026.

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

### Taylor Creek coalbed methane

Taurus Exploration's unit in the far north of the county, drilled in 1990 and 1991, produced gas from 1992 to 1994 and was plugged; a 2009 redrilling attempt by BWNR and Huber Energy found nothing.

### Shale gas tests

Energen, Chesapeake, and Hillwood Energy drilled deep shale wildcats here between 2007 and 2011, to as much as 11,900 feet, and every one was dry.

Questions

## Straight answers for Greene County owners

What are mineral rights worth in Greene County?
Honestly, not much today: nothing has produced in the county since 1994, and the last permits were dry shale tests in 2010 and 2011. Non-producing acreage here is worth what a buyer will pay to hold it against the chance the coalbed methane fields to the northeast are ever pushed this far, and we will tell you that number and how we got it, free.

Someone leased our Greene County minerals years ago. Is that lease still good?
Almost certainly not, if nothing was ever produced. A primary term expires on its own, and a lease held by production ends when the production does, which in Greene County means the early 1990s. We pull the lease and the well records and tell you whether anything is still encumbering the tract, free, because an expired lease still sitting in the chain is one of the most common reasons an owner underprices acreage.

Our Greene County minerals were never probated. Does that matter if nothing is producing?
It matters the day someone wants to lease or buy. Alabama has no transfer on death deed, so inherited minerals pass through probate, and an unprobated interest becomes heirs property held by every descendant at once. Leasing or selling then requires signatures from all of them. We tell you what cleaning that up would involve, free, before anyone decides anything.

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.
