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?

Questions

## Straight answers for Jefferson County owners

What are mineral rights worth in Jefferson County?
It depends on the wells actually on your tract and who runs them. The Healdton corner near Ringling carries unit royalties with a century of history; much of the rest of the county is a plugged lease or bare acreage. Your value is the actual wells, their decline, and your decimal, not a county average. We value off the wells and show the work, free.

My Jefferson County interest is in a Healdton unit. What should I know?
Unitized shallow oil under a large operator tends to pay small, steady, predictable royalties for a very long time, which makes it easy to value and hard to hurry. Read the unit agreement to see which tracts participate and at what factor; that number, not your deed acreage, drives your check. We will read it with you, free.

What if the operator pays my royalty late?
Since November 1, 2026, under HB 1371, late royalty in Oklahoma carries 15 percent simple interest. If an operator owes you back royalty, the interest is now worth asking about, and we can tell you whether the stubs show a problem.

What does it cost me to sell?
Nothing. Berlin pays all title work, document preparation, and recording costs. The offer you accept is the amount you receive.
