Where We Buy · Colorado · Garfield County ## Sell your Garfield County mineral rights. Glenwood Springs, Rifle, Parachute: Piceance Basin tight gas with Colorado's second largest well count, and royalty owners holding tiny decimals across hundreds of wells. [Get a Free Valuation](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/free-valuation/) or call or text [918-984-1645](tel:9189841645) Garfield County is Piceance Basin tight gas and carries Colorado's second largest well count: roughly 10,104 producing wells out of about 17,406 drilled. It is mature, very long lived, and declining slowly, with only about 42 permits in two years and one recent spud. The defining feature for an owner is fragmentation of a different kind than usual. The Williams Fork is a stack of discontinuous lenticular channel sands commingled in directional wells from large multi-well pads at roughly 10 to 20 acre effective density. So a Garfield royalty owner typically holds a very small decimal across dozens or hundreds of wells. Verifying a division order here is laborious, and the administrative cost relative to revenue is exactly why buyers with minimum transaction sizes ignore Garfield County interests entirely. We buy them. No minimum, our own title work, all closing costs paid. Operator names are also confusing here. TEP Rocky Mountain remains operator of record with control passed to Flywheel Energy Management, QB Energy holds the former Caerus position after Quantum Capital's roughly $1.8 billion acquisition, and many wells still show WPX Energy Rocky Mountain, a name that left in 2016. The undeveloped upside is deep Mancos and Niobrara across roughly 150,000 net acres identified as prospective. We price that as option value with the probability stated rather than promising it. Federal exposure is high, with BLM and White River National Forest alongside fee minerals along the Colorado River corridor. Colorado follows the first marketable product rule under Rogers v. Westerman. Send us a statement.

A zero does not mean nothing is happening, only that nothing was reported in that window. Activity like this is exactly what moves mineral value.

Dozens to hundreds of discontinuous lenticular channel sands commingled in directional wells from large multi-well pads. ### Iles Group, Corcoran and Cozzette Additional Mesaverde section. ### Cameo coals A coal interval thick enough to distort the basin's geothermal gradient. ### Mancos and Niobrara Deep and largely undeveloped. Roughly 150,000 net acres were identified as prospective for horizontal development, which remains the county's undeveloped upside.

Questions ## Straight answers for Garfield County owners Why do I have a tiny decimal in dozens of wells? Because that is how the Piceance was developed. The Williams Fork is a stack of discontinuous lenticular channel sands commingled in directional wells drilled from large multi-well pads at roughly 10 to 20 acre effective density. A Garfield County royalty owner typically holds very small decimals spread across dozens or even hundreds of wells. That makes division order verification laborious and makes small tracts administratively expensive relative to revenue, which is precisely why most buyers will not return your call. We will. Who operates in Garfield County now? TEP Rocky Mountain, the Terra Energy Partners entity, remains operator of record and control passed to Oklahoma based Flywheel Energy Management, with one rig running. QB Energy Operating holds the former Caerus Piceance position, acquired by Quantum Capital for roughly $1.8 billion. Chevron, Piceance Energy and Laramie Energy, Mustang, and SWEVCO-SABW are also present. Records still show WPX Energy Rocky Mountain on many wells, which is a legacy name; WPX sold to Terra in 2016. Is the deep Mancos worth anything under my acreage? It is genuine but unproven upside and we price it as such. When Terra acquired the position it also took deep rights across roughly 150,000 net acres identified as prospective for horizontal Mancos and Niobrara development, and that remains largely undeveloped. We treat it as option value with a stated probability rather than promising it, and we show you what probability we applied and why.
