Marion, Hillsboro, Peabody: we buy minerals and royalties throughout Marion County, Lost Springs and Peabody oil on the Nemaha Uplift.
Marion County is Nemaha Uplift oil in farm country, and it is a county on the way down: the well count has halved since 2019 and the gas that Lost Springs used to produce has stopped. That is not a reason to avoid it. It is a reason to know exactly which leases are still paying before anyone talks numbers, and we do.
What produces here. Kansas Geological Survey production for 2025: 74,333 barrels of oil from 148 wells, and 34,045 barrels from 140 wells for January through June 2026, with no gas reported; in 2019 the county made 111,913 barrels from 277 wells and 145,689 Mcf from 156 gas wells. The oil is Mississippian, Hunton, Viola and Kansas City from Lost Springs, Peabody, Unger, Covert-Sellers, Bitikofer North, Elbing and Fanska. Operators on checks and in the county records include Te-Pe Oil & Gas, Lachenmayr Oil, Montgomery Production & Operating, Darrah Oil, H & H Oil, Bruce Oil Company, Scott's Production, Mai Oil Operations, K-Bar Oil and Hillenburg Oil. The Kansas Corporation Commission has 331 wells across three Chase and Marion projects on its federal formula-grant plugging list.
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 Kansas.
Discovered 1927, 30.9 million barrels and 52 million Mcf from the Wabaunsee, Kansas City, Mississippian and Viola; still the field with the most active leases in the county.
Nemaha Uplift oil from the Mississippian, Hunton and Viola, found 1918 to 1955; the county's gas production, 145,689 Mcf in 2019, had fallen to nothing by 2025.
