Where We Buy · Oklahoma · Seminole County

Sell your Seminole County mineral rights.

Wewoka, Seminole, Konawa: the Greater Seminole field was briefly the largest oil producing area in the world in 1927, and it left 18,000 wells behind.

The Greater Seminole field came in in 1926, and by 1927 this area was briefly producing more oil than anywhere else on earth, at one point something close to a quarter of United States output. Roughly 18,111 wells have been drilled in Seminole County since, with about 1,364 still producing.

A century later, what that history means for an owner is fine division and lost interests. Mineral title here is among the most fragmented in Oklahoma, and a great deal of royalty money sits in operator suspense waiting on heirs nobody has located. We buy small fractional interests with no minimum and pay all closing costs, and when we find suspended money that belongs to you we tell you how to claim it and you keep it.

On current activity, we will be straight: five permits in the last 90 days and no rigs. The asset is a long, shallow, predictable production tail, not a drilling story, and we price it accordingly with the decline assumption shown.

Before price, though, there is a threshold question. Seminole County has substantial allotted land history associated with the Seminole Nation. Interests in restricted or trust land are administered through the Bureau of Indian Affairs, are frequently fractionated by heirship, and generally cannot be conveyed to a private buyer without federal approval. We establish that free, and we tell you the answer even when it means we cannot buy what you have.

New Dominion, Circle 9 Resources, Stephens and Johnson Operating, and Lance Ruffel are among the largest producing operators.

County totals. Source: Enverus, as of 2026-08-17. Rigs are currently active; permits are those approved in the last 90 days; completions are wells reporting first production in the last 90 days, which lags by state. A zero does not mean nothing is happening, only that nothing was reported in that window. Activity like this is exactly what moves mineral value.

Questions

Straight answers for Seminole County owners

What was the Greater Seminole field?
One of the most spectacular oil discoveries in American history. The field came in in 1926 and by 1927 the Greater Seminole area was briefly producing more oil than anywhere else in the world, at one point around a quarter of United States output. Roughly 18,111 wells have been drilled in this county since. That history is why Seminole County mineral title is so finely divided today and why so much royalty money here sits in operator suspense.
Is there any drilling in Seminole County now?
Very little. Five permits were approved in the last 90 days with no rigs running, against roughly 1,364 producing wells. Value here sits in a long, shallow, predictable production tail rather than in undrilled inventory, and we price it that way. New Dominion, Circle 9 Resources, Stephens and Johnson Operating, and Lance Ruffel Oil and Gas are among the largest producing operators.
My family's Seminole County land came through a tribal allotment. Does that matter?
It can, and it needs to be established first. Seminole County has substantial allotted land history associated with the Seminole Nation, and interests in restricted or trust land are administered through the Bureau of Indian Affairs, are frequently fractionated by heirship, and generally cannot be conveyed to a private buyer without federal approval. We make that determination free before any discussion of price, including when the answer means we cannot buy what you hold.
