Where We Buy · Montana · Dawson County ## Sell your Dawson County mineral rights. Glendive, Richey, Lindsay: a Bakken fringe that was tested and largely failed, over a Red River base, with a Northern Pacific checkerboard running through the middle. [Get a Free Valuation](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/free-valuation/) or call or text [918-984-1645](tel:9189841645) Dawson County is honest about what it is: a quiet county with a Bakken story that did not pan out. The fringe around Richey was tested horizontally in 2012 to 2014, oil peaked at about 847,000 barrels in 2013, and it collapsed afterward. Today roughly 5 wells produce across 4 leases out of 368 drilled, with about 1,600 barrels and 607 Mcf in a recent month for the whole county. Four operators remain. We will not build you a story around that. If you own here, the realistic question is whether your acreage carries option value from future leasing rather than what your production is worth, and we will price it on that basis and show you the reasoning. Sometimes that number is small enough that the honest answer is to keep it. The defining title feature is the Northern Pacific land grant. The mainline runs through Glendive, so odd numbered sections were patented to the railroad with minerals reserved, and those reserved estates now sit with successor royalty and mineral companies rather than with families. The Yellowstone River crosses the county, raising riverbed and accretion questions on riparian tracts, and there is substantial BLM and state trust acreage south of the river. There are no reservation lands. Montana has no dormant mineral act, so whatever your family reserved here is still yours regardless of how long it has sat. Send us a legal description and we will tell you what is under it.

Questions ## Straight answers for Dawson County owners Was the Bakken ever proven in Dawson County? Not commercially. A Bakken and Three Forks fringe around Richey was tested horizontally in 2012 to 2014. County oil peaked at about 847,000 barrels in 2013 and then collapsed. Today about 5 wells produce across 4 leases out of 368 wells drilled, with roughly 1,600 barrels of oil in a recent month for the entire county. We would rather tell you that than let you accept an offer based on a Bakken story. If the county is dormant, does my interest have any value? It may, but as acreage rather than as income. Non-producing minerals carry option value based on what could be drilled and what nearby leasing is doing, not on current production. In a county with five producing wells, that option value is modest and speculative, and we will price it that way and explain the reasoning. Sometimes the honest answer is that the interest is not worth the cost of the paperwork, and we will tell you that too. How does the Northern Pacific land grant affect Dawson County title? Dawson sits on the Northern Pacific mainline through Glendive, so the land grant checkerboard is the defining title feature. Odd numbered sections were patented to the railroad with minerals reserved, and those reserved estates are now held by successor royalty and mineral entities rather than by local families. A title search that assumes a homestead pattern will reach the wrong answer in alternating sections. Free Valuation ## Find out what your Dawson County minerals are worth.
