Waurika, Ryan, Ringling, Terral, Hastings: we buy minerals and royalties throughout Jefferson County, where the west end of the Healdton field pays old oil royalties along the Red River.
Jefferson County is Waurika, Ryan, cattle and cotton along the Red River, and a corner of one of Oklahoma's great shallow oil fields. The Healdton field, found in 1913, pushes into the northeastern part of the county around Ringling, and three smaller pools were opened toward the river in the 1920s; by 1930 the county had 118 producing oil wells and 12 gas wells. The field has been in long decline for decades, and the royalties it pays are small, old and surprisingly durable.
What produces here. Legacy oil and no reported gas. The Oklahoma Historical Society puts county oil production at 550,751 barrels in 1975 and 403,655 barrels in 1990, and the decline has continued since; today the state production data compiled by aggregators shows about twenty operators reporting oil and none reporting gas, with Citation Oil and Gas, BCE-Mach III, the Dehart Company and Gladiator Operating of Ardmore, Fitzgerald Oil of Waurika, Billy Judd Investment Company and Dennis and Davis Oil of Nocona among the names on checks and in the county records. The Oklahoma Corporation Commission does not publish a simple monthly county total, so we describe activity rather than quote a figure, and we found no 2025 or 2026 drilling in Jefferson County to report.
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 Oklahoma.
A corner of the great Healdton shallow oil field reaches into northeastern Jefferson County near Ringling, drilled from 1913 and still pumping under Citation and smaller Ardmore operators.
Three smaller oil and gas pools opened in the 1920s toward the Red River; thousands of wellbores on file, a few hundred still reporting, oil only.
