[Get a Free Valuation](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/free-valuation/) or call or text [918-984-1645](tel:9189841645) Johnson County is Arkoma Basin gas, the conventional kind: Atoka sands drilled across the river valley around Clarksville and Lamar over decades by a rotating cast of operators, now mostly held by Merit Energy and a few private companies out of Fort Smith and Oklahoma. The wells are old, the royalties are modest, and the title under Coal Hill is as tangled as the name suggests. **What produces here.** Arkansas Oil and Gas Commission production data show Johnson County at 194,287 Mcf of gas and no oil for June 2026, down from about 230,000 Mcf a month earlier in the year. Merit Energy was the largest reporter for the month at about 65,000 Mcf, with Oxley Energy, Riverfront Exploration, MMGK Arkoma, Hanna Oil and Gas and Weiser-Brown Operating making up most of the rest. There has been no new drilling of note in the county in 2025 or 2026; what you own here is legacy conventional gas. 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?

[Read the Arkansas guide](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/guide/arkansas/) Questions ## Straight answers for Johnson County owners What are mineral rights worth in Johnson County? This is dry gas country, so value turns on gas price, on the slow decline the wells run, and on your decimal in the unit, not on oil headlines, and in Johnson County that ranges from a few dollars a month to a real income, so county averages mislead. We value off the actual wells and activity and show the work, free. Do I owe property tax on Arkansas minerals? Producing minerals are assessed ad valorem each January 1 by the county assessor, based on the prior year's production, and the bill goes to whoever the assessor has on the roll. If the family moved and the bill went to an old address, the interest can go to tax sale through the Commissioner of State Lands. Check the assessor's roll in the county where the minerals sit, not where you live, and if you find a delinquency call us before it goes to sale. My parent died owning Arkansas minerals. Do we have to open probate? Not always. Arkansas allows a small estate affidavit for estates up to $100,000, and unlike most states it covers real property, including minerals, with a notice published in the county; a beneficiary deed, if one was recorded while the owner was alive, passes the minerals outside probate entirely. Larger estates or ones with a will contest go through probate. We read the chain free and tell you which path your family actually needs. 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 Johnson County The things owners here most often wish they had read first.
