McConnelsville, Malta, Chesterhill, Stockport: we buy minerals and royalties throughout Morgan County, on the southwestern edge of the Utica.
Morgan County is the quiet southwestern corner of the Utica: a few horizontal wells, a thousand old conventional wells, and families in McConnelsville and Malta holding fractions of both. It is not Noble County next door, and a page that pretends otherwise is not helping you.
What produces here. ODNR's 2025 annual production report shows 23,435 barrels of oil and 376,755 Mcf of gas from Morgan County, with 1,140 wells reporting and only 478 of them producing anything. The operators on checks and in the county records are Bullitt Energy, Temple Oil and Gas, Petro Quest, Knox Energy, Cameron Production and Artex Oil, all conventional. The horizontal exception is INR Ohio, the Infinity Natural Resources entity, whose Palmer 2H and 3H in Center Township first produced in September 2014 and reported 788 barrels and 27,449 Mcf in the second quarter of 2026. ODNR's 2026 quarterly report shows no new Utica wells online in Morgan County.
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 activity, 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. Inherited it? Start with inherited mineral rights in Ohio.
The Clinton is the most drilled formation in Ohio, more than 100,000 wells deep across the eastern half of the state, and most of Morgan County's producing wells are small conventional gas and oil wells of that kind.
Three horizontal wells in Center Township operated by INR Ohio, the Infinity Natural Resources entity, are the county's only Utica production. They first produced in 2014 and are still online.
Wherever your tract sits in Morgan County, we will research it free and value it with the work shown.
