Ozark, Charleston, Altus: we buy minerals and royalties throughout Franklin County, Arkoma Basin gas on both sides of the Arkansas River.
Franklin County is Arkoma gas country split by the Arkansas River, with its land records split the same way between Ozark and Charleston. The wells are conventional Atoka gas, most of them decades old, and the royalties have outlived the people who signed the leases, which is why so many of the interests we see here are fractions of fractions held by cousins in three states.
What produces here. Arkansas Oil and Gas Commission production data show Franklin County at 715,543 Mcf of gas and no oil for June 2026, with monthly volumes between 680,000 and 750,000 Mcf through August 2026. Merit Energy was the largest reporter for the month at about 188,000 Mcf and MMGK Arkoma next at about 58,000 Mcf, with Hanna Oil and Gas, Riverfront Exploration, Oxley Energy, Rusk County Well Service, Weiser-Brown Operating, Stone Oak Operating and Lyons and Lyons also on the reports. There has been no new drilling of note in the county in 2025 or 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? Start with inherited mineral rights in Arkansas.

Franklin County keeps separate land records at Ozark for the northern district and Charleston for the southern, and a mineral deed recorded in the wrong one is a title problem waiting to be found.
