Sapulpa, Bristow, Drumright: the Cushing field made this the most famous oil county in America in 1915, and it left roughly 35,800 wells and a century of fractional title.
Creek County is where American oil history was made. The Cushing field came in in 1912, and by 1915 the area around Drumright and Oilton was producing a large share of the world's oil supply. Cushing is still the pricing point for West Texas Intermediate for exactly this reason.
What that left behind is roughly 35,830 wells drilled, about 2,739 still producing, and one of the most fragmented mineral title pictures in Oklahoma. A century of intestate succession has divided ownership into very small fractions held by people scattered across many states, a great many of whom do not know they own anything. That is why so much royalty money sits in operator suspense in this county.
We buy those interests. No minimum, our own title work, all closing costs paid. And if we find money sitting in suspense that belongs to you, we tell you how to claim it and you keep it, whether or not you ever sell.
We will also be straight about the asset. There is essentially no new drilling here: three permits in the last 90 days, no rigs. Value sits in a long, shallow, predictable decline, not in undrilled inventory, and we price it that way and show you the arithmetic.
Orphan and abandoned wells are a real issue across the old field area. Liability generally follows the operator rather than the mineral owner, but diligence takes longer here and we handle that rather than discounting your price for it.
Send a check stub, an old division order, or just a family name and a section. We will run the county and Corporation Commission records and tell you what is there, free.
The Cushing field pays, producing since 1912 and still producing today.
