Where We Buy · Ohio · Harrison County ## Sell your Harrison County mineral rights. Cadiz, Hopedale, Scio: the county where the Utica flips from oil to gas inside its own borders, third in Ohio in both oil and gas, and the middle of a very large payor change. [Get a Free Valuation](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/free-valuation/) or call or text [918-984-1645](tel:9189841645) Harrison County is one of the most productive counties in Ohio and one of the more complicated to value, because the Utica changes phase inside the county line. The west sits in the oil and condensate window, the east in the wet to dry gas window. Harrison produced roughly 2.0 million barrels of oil and 92 million Mcf of gas in a recent quarter, third in the state in both. Anyone quoting a Harrison County average is telling you about a county, not about your section. EOG's $5.6 billion acquisition of Encino Acquisition Partners closed in 2025 and converted EAP Ohio to EOG Ohio, changing the payor on thousands of division orders. If your checks stopped or changed format, that is the first thing to check. EOG Ohio now runs roughly 302 active wells, with Ascent Resources Utica at about 214. Ohio develops the Utica mainly through unitization under R.C. 1509.28, requiring consent of owners of at least 65 percent of the land area, and Ascent obtained multiple orders across Short Creek and Athens townships in 2026. If you are unleased or a minority owner, the terms set for nonconsenting owners in that proceeding are what you live with, and they are easier to influence beforehand. Extensive strip mined coal lands leave reclamation era deeds and coal severances in the chain, and Dormant Mineral Act disputes are frequent. Under R.C. 5301.56 and the Marketable Title Act, both confirmed as independent routes in West v. Bode, an unrecorded severed interest here is genuinely at risk. Record a claim to preserve before you think about selling.

Questions ## Straight answers for Harrison County owners Why did my payor change from EAP Ohio to EOG? Because EOG's acquisition of Encino Acquisition Partners closed in 2025, converting EAP Ohio to EOG Ohio. Thousands of division orders changed payors as a result, and owners who stopped receiving checks frequently just have a new payor rather than a real problem. EOG Ohio now operates roughly 302 active wells here, with Ascent Resources Utica at about 214, plus Gulfport, Expand, and Sound Energy. Is my Harrison County interest oil or gas? It depends on where in the county you are, and this is the county where that flips internally. The western part sits in the oil and condensate window, the eastern part in the wet to dry gas window. Those are different assets with different price exposure and different processing economics, and a valuation that treats Harrison as one thing is wrong for half the county. We look at your specific section rather than applying a county average. What is a unitization order and should I care? Yes, if you are unleased or a minority owner. Ohio develops the horizontal Utica mainly through unitization under R.C. 1509.28 rather than compulsory pooling, and an applicant must have consent of owners of at least 65 percent of the land area overlying the pool. Ascent obtained multiple orders across Short Creek and Athens townships during 2026. The terms the Division Chief sets for nonconsenting owners are what you live with for the life of the unit, and they are far easier to influence before the hearing than after.
