Lufkin, Diboll, Huntington: we buy minerals and royalties throughout Angelina County, Haynesville gas in the Angelina River trend.
Angelina County is Lufkin, timber, and, in recent years, some of the deepest gas wells in Texas. The Haynesville runs south out of Nacogdoches and San Augustine into the Angelina River trend, and the operator that drilled most of it, Aethon, sold its Haynesville platform to Mitsubishi in July 2026, so the wells are now run by Adamas Energy. If your family owns minerals under the pine plantations east of Lufkin, the number on the check may be larger than the number anyone has told you.
What produces here. Railroad Commission production for August 2026: 11,893,086 Mcf of gas and essentially no oil (45 barrels of condensate), with the Carthage (Haynesville Shale) field making about 88 billion of the 89 billion cubic feet reported from January through August; Raintree (Travis Peak), Loco Bayou (James Lime), and Red Land North (Travis Peak) make up the rest. Only 16 operators report here. The ones you will see on checks and in the county records are Adamas Energy (the Mitsubishi subsidiary that took over Aethon Energy's Haynesville platform when the sale closed in July 2026, about three quarters of the county's gas), Aethon Energy Operating, BPX Operating, Atlas Operating, Merit Energy, BRG Lone Star, and SM Operating. The Commission approved 9 new horizontal drilling permits in 2026 through November 7, all deep: Adamas 6 (Utahraptor Gas Unit, Dracorex-Utahraptor, and Kinabalu, 16,500 to 17,100 feet) and Caturus Energy 3 (Sturgeon, Stoneroller, and Rastrosus at 17,500 feet), the last of them approved November 5.
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 Texas.
The deep Haynesville as it runs south into Angelina County: 16,500 to 17,500-foot wells operated by Adamas Energy (Mitsubishi) and Caturus that make nearly all of the county's gas.
Raintree (Travis Peak), Red Land (Pettit and Travis Peak), and Loco Bayou (James Lime): the older gas that carried the county before the shale, now a small fraction of the total.
