Golden Valley County sits on the Montana line in western North Dakota, and it is a Red River county rather than a Bakken county. The North Dakota Geological Survey has noted that Red River covers a far larger area of Golden Valley than the Bakken does, and the Bakken here is confined to the northeast corner. Development has been vertical, and the operator list is short: WGO Resources, Burlington Resources, Continental, White Rock, Granite Creek, Foundation Energy, and a handful of others.

This is a small county by production. Roughly 61 to 65 wells produce out of 378 drilled, with output peaking around 2000 and 2001 at just over a million barrels a year. That concentration cuts in an owner's favor when it comes to valuation, because a single good well matters and a county average tells you nothing.

Two title features are worth knowing. The Northern Pacific land grant checkerboard runs through the county, so odd sections carry reserved railroad minerals now held by corporate successors, which is why Burlington Resources appears as an operator. And the Little Missouri River forms part of the eastern boundary, carrying the same unresolved navigability and riverbed ownership question as neighboring Billings County. We will flag that rather than price around it.

Send us a legal description and we will run the wells, the formation, and the chain, free.

Questions

## Straight answers for Golden Valley County owners

Is Golden Valley County a Bakken county?
Only in its northeast corner. The county's actual production is Red River, an Ordovician conventional reservoir developed with vertical wells across a much larger area than the Bakken reaches here. Madison adds more. Anyone marketing Golden Valley acreage as Bakken is stretching it, and it is worth asking exactly which formation is under your specific tract.

There are only about sixty producing wells in the whole county. Does my interest still matter?
It matters more, not less. With roughly 61 to 65 producing wells across the county, ownership is concentrated and any individual tract carries disproportionate weight in a valuation. A single good Red River well can drive the value of an interest that would be a rounding error in McKenzie County. We look at your specific wells rather than applying a county average.

Who is Burlington Resources and why do they show up in my chain?
Burlington Resources is a ConocoPhillips company whose presence here traces to the Northern Pacific land grant. Odd numbered sections along the railroad corridor were patented with the minerals reserved, and those reserved mineral estates passed through Burlington Northern to Burlington Resources. If your chain of title runs through that grant, the ownership picture in alternating sections is different from what a homestead patent would suggest.
