Chama, Dulce, Lindrith, Espanola: 9,858 producing wells across the eastern San Juan Basin, with 51 permits approved in the last 90 days.
Rio Arriba County has nearly 10,000 producing wells and a title history unlike anywhere else we buy, running through Spanish and Mexican land grants, tribal land, and federal acreage alongside fee minerals. Hilcorp operates roughly 5,773 of the wells. Interests here are frequently very old, very fractional, and never probated, and the combination is why most buyers do not answer Rio Arriba inquiries. We do, and we pay for the curative work.
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 San Juan Basin page for how the play as a whole is valued.
