[Get a Free Valuation](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/free-valuation/) or call or text [918-984-1645](tel:9189841645) Cowley County is old oil, the Nemaha Uplift kind, where the Arbuckle fields found in the 1920s are still paying royalties to the great-grandchildren of the people who signed the leases. It has quietly produced about half a million barrels a year for a decade, which in a county nobody writes about is a respectable thing. **What produces here.** Kansas Geological Survey production for 2025: 479,192 barrels of oil from 698 wells, and 223,414 barrels from 670 wells for January through June 2026; gas is negligible, a single well. Cumulative county oil passed 190 million barrels in 2025, most of it from the Bartlesville, Arbuckle, Mississippian, Simpson and Layton zones in fields like Rainbow Bend, Churchill, Slick-Carson, Rock, Murphy and Fox-Bush-Couch, with the Albright Mississippian field and the Wilson, Maddix North and Graham leases carrying much of the active lease count. The operators you will see on checks and in the county records include Val Energy, Anstine & Musgrove, Richardson and Son, AAS Oil, Thresher Energy, Darrah Oil, MaxCrude, Raney Oil, HG Oil Holdings, W.D. Short Oil and Bear Petroleum. The Kansas Corporation Commission has a 35-well Cowley County project on its federal formula-grant plugging list, so expect some of the oldest idle wells here to be plugged rather than revived. 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?

It depends on the wells actually on your tract, their decline, and your decimal. Cowley has more than 200 named fields, and a share of a hundred-year-old Arbuckle lease at Rainbow Bend prices very differently from a quarter section with no well on it, so county averages mislead. We value off the actual leases and show the work, free. Can an operator force-pool my Kansas minerals? No. Kansas has no compulsory pooling statute. Operators here combine tracts by voluntary lease pooling clauses or by unitization, so if you are unleased, nobody can drill through your minerals and send you a pooling order the way Oklahoma does. That gives an unleased Kansas owner real leverage, and it is one of the first things we read in your lease. I inherited Kansas minerals that nobody has touched in decades. Do I still own them? Probably, but check before you assume. Kansas has a 20-year dormant mineral act, K.S.A. 55-1601, under which a severed mineral interest that has gone unused for 20 years can lapse back to the surface owner unless the owner records a statement of claim. Filing that statement is cheap and cures the problem. We check the dormancy question on every Kansas valuation we do, free. 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 Cowley County The things owners here most often wish they had read first.
