Archer City, Holliday, Windthorst, Megargel: we buy minerals and royalties throughout Archer County, shallow Caddo and Strawn oil that is still being drilled.
Archer County had seventeen fields and 411 wells within thirteen miles of Archer City by 1926, and it has never really stopped drilling. The Caddo lime and shallow Strawn sands that made the county are cheap to reach, and a crowd of small independents keeps punching vertical wells into them, more new-drill permits in 2026 than any other North Texas county on this list. The royalties are small, the leases are old, and the ownership is divided the way a hundred years of inheritance divides things.
What produces here. Archer County Regular, which made 31,807 of the county's 82,941 barrels in August 2026, Anarene East (Caddo), Jefferson Northeast (Caddo Lime), Scotland (Caddo Lime), Jean Northwest (Caddo), Coleman Ranch (Ellenburger), and Hull-Silk-Sikes. Railroad Commission production for July 2026: 87,405 barrels of oil and 51,992 Mcf of gas, almost all of it oil. One hundred twenty operators reported production in August 2026; the larger ones you will see on checks and in the county records include Borderline Operating, Bridwell Oil, R2Q Operating, Willowbend Investments, Wilcox Energy, B.O.L.D. Oil and Gas, and Eagle Oil and Gas. Drilling is the busiest in North Texas: 54 new-drill permits approved between January and early November 2026, every one vertical, led by Eagle Oil and Gas with 11, Wilcox Energy with 8, B.O.L.D. with 8, Borderline with 7, and Bridwell with 6.
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.
