Boulder, Longmont, Lafayette: we buy minerals and royalties throughout Boulder County, the old western edge of the Wattenberg field.
Boulder County has some of the strictest local oil and gas rules in Colorado and about a hundred old wells that predate them, which makes it a county of two kinds of owners: families along the Weld County line whose Wattenberg-edge royalties still pay, and everyone else, whose minerals under Boulder, Longmont or the foothills are worth something only on paper. The Draco pad is the first thing in years to change that math, and only for a few square miles under Erie.
What produces here. ECMC production reports for June 2026 show Boulder County at 2,117 barrels of oil and 35,121 Mcf of gas from 99 wells reporting production, Niobrara-Codell and J Sand wells on the county's eastern edge. The operators on the reports are Crestone Peak Resources Operating and Extraction Oil and Gas, both Civitas subsidiaries that became part of SM Energy when that merger closed on January 30, 2026; KP Kauffman also holds wells in the county that reported no production. The ECMC approved the Draco oil and gas development plan on March 26, 2025 by a 4 to 1 vote, 26 horizontal wells from a Weld County pad reaching into Boulder County, and the operator's pooling applications for the Draco units were pending before the ECMC as of September 2026. Boulder County itself reported in April 2026 that no new development has occurred in the unincorporated county since 2012.
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 Colorado.
Legacy Wattenberg-edge wells around Erie, Lafayette and Longmont, about 100 of them still reporting, operated by Crestone Peak Resources and Extraction Oil and Gas, both part of SM Energy since its January 30, 2026 merger with Civitas.
A 26-well development approved by the ECMC on March 26, 2025 from a pad in Weld County just outside Erie, with laterals running up to two and a half miles west into Boulder County, the first new drilling to reach the county in more than a decade.
