Chaves County is the most unusual county in New Mexico for a mineral owner. IACX Energy and Desert Mountain Energy are helium producers, and helium is priced and marketed on a completely different basis from oil and gas: contracts rather than posted prices, and a much smaller set of buyers. If your Chaves County lease covers helium or other non-hydrocarbon gases, that is worth reading carefully, because a lot of older leases are ambiguous about whether they reach it at all. We buy helium royalties and we are one of very few buyers who will quote one.

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 units rather than off a county average, 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.

Well, rig and permit counts are sourced from Enverus and current as of August 2026. See our [Permian Basin page](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/texas/permian-basin/) for how the play as a whole is valued.

Questions

## Straight answers for Chaves County owners

What are mineral rights worth in Chaves County?
It turns on your section rather than on the county. Chaves County has roughly 1,565 producing wells, 9 permits approved in the last 90 days, and the difference between a tract inside an active unit and a quiet tract is large. Send what you have and we will tell you which one you own, with the arithmetic shown, free.

Who operates in Chaves County?
The largest producing positions belong to IACX Energy with roughly 504 producing wells, Solis Partners with roughly 384 producing wells, Desert Mountain Energy with roughly 180 producing wells. That matters more than owners expect: each operator has its own check schedule, its own suspense practices, and its own appetite for drilling, and a family interest here frequently sits under more than one of them. Our operator directory has contact information for each.

Do you buy small or inherited fractional interests?
Yes. Inherited fractions are a specialty, including the small interests other buyers ignore, and we cure title problems at our cost. There is no minimum.
