Lane County is Dighton and more oil fields than any county on this page, 274 of them still active, most of them small Lansing-Kansas City structures found one at a time from the 1960s on. Shakespeare Oil runs more leases here than anyone, production peaked above a million barrels a year from 2008 to 2011, and the royalties are spread across hundreds of families who have never seen the pumpjack.

**What produces here.** Kansas Geological Survey production for 2025: 391,806 barrels of oil from 377 wells, and 188,321 barrels from 355 wells for January through June 2026; the county has never reported gas. Oil was 1,073,414 barrels in 2008 and 673,187 in 2019, so the county is on a long slide from its best years. It is Lansing-Kansas City, Marmaton, Cherokee and Pawnee oil from Jennison, Demand Northwest, Pendennis South, Prairie Ridge Northwest, Alamota Northwest and Roemer among 274 active fields. Shakespeare Oil holds 49 of the 301 leases that reported in 2025 or 2026, with Mull Drilling, Ritchie Exploration, Vess Oil, Grand Mesa Operating, Raymond Oil, Trans Pacific Oil, Blue Goose Drilling, Abercrombie Energy, Wilton Petroleum and Carmen Schmitt also on checks.

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?

Questions

## Straight answers for Lane County owners

What are mineral rights worth in Lane County?
Lane County made 391,806 barrels in 2025 from 377 wells, down from 673,187 in 2019 and from more than a million a year in 2008 through 2011, so the county is a long way down its curve. With 274 active fields, your value depends on which small pool you are in and how old its wells are, and we price the actual lease and its curve rather than the county, free and with the work shown.

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.

My Kansas royalty checks arrive late. Does the operator owe me interest?
Yes. Under K.S.A. 55-1614, proceeds not paid on time accrue interest at the New York Federal Reserve discount rate plus 1.5 points, unless there is a genuine title dispute. If you are inheriting a stack of stale checks, send them along; we read the pay history as part of any valuation, 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.
