Spearman, Gruver, Morse: we buy minerals and royalties throughout Hansford County, the Texas end of the Hugoton field and the Morrow gas beneath it.
Hansford County is the Texas end of the Hugoton, the same enormous shallow gas accumulation we work across the state line in Texas County, Oklahoma, and it behaves the same way: a lot of old wells, very slow declines, royalty checks that have been coming for generations, and ownership split so fine that operators lose track of who to pay. There is no development story here and we will not manufacture one. There is a lot of old gas money, some of it sitting in suspense.
What produces here. Texas Hugoton, which made 153,673 of the county's 573,103 Mcf in August 2026, Hansford (Morrow Lower) and Hansford (Morrow Upper), Shapley (Morrow), and the Allen-Parker (Marmaton), Pan Petro (Cleveland), and Twin (Tonkawa) oil fields. Railroad Commission production for July 2026: 8,215 barrels of oil and 520,724 Mcf of gas, nearly all of it gas-well gas. The operators you will see on checks and in the county records include Burk Royalty, Mewbourne Oil, Bracken Operating, Latigo Petroleum, Highmark Energy Operating, MMGL TXPH, and Amarillo Exploration. Drilling is idle: the Commission shows no new-drill permits approved in Hansford County in 2025 or 2026 through early November.
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 county's largest field, the southern extension of the Hugoton gas area that runs from Kansas through the Oklahoma Panhandle; shallow, long-lived, and helium-bearing enough that Air Products operated a helium plant in the county in the 1990s.
Deeper Pennsylvanian gas, the county's second and third largest fields.
The county's small oil, the western fringe of the Ochiltree plays.
