Cotulla, Encinal, Fowlerton: we buy minerals and royalties throughout La Salle County, in the heart of the Eagle Ford.
La Salle County is the Eagle Ford, full stop. A county of about 6,500 people sits on more than 30 billion cubic feet of gas and 2.5 million barrels of oil a month, and the royalty owners are scattered from Cotulla to Seattle. Most of them inherited a fraction of a ranch and have never seen the unit map.
What produces here. Railroad Commission production for August 2026: 2,541,385 barrels of oil, 1,230,120 barrels of condensate, and about 30.2 million Mcf of gas (5.47 million casinghead, 24.76 million gas well), almost all of it from the Eagleville (Eagle Ford-1) and Hawkville (Eagleford Shale) fields, with Briscoe Ranch (Eagleford) third. The operators you will see on checks and in the county records include EOG Resources, Verdun Oil and Gas and Verdun Oil EF II, Javelin Energy Partners, INEOS USA Oil and Gas (which bought Chesapeake's black-oil Eagle Ford acreage in Dimmit, La Salle and McMullen in 2023), BPX Operating, Lewis Petro Properties, XTO, Texas American Resources, SilverBow (part of Crescent Energy since July 2024), and Rosewood Resources. Drilling has not slowed: the Commission approved 108 new horizontal drilling permits in La Salle County in 2026 through November 7, led by EOG with 24, Verdun with 19, Lewis Petro and INEOS with 13 each, and Verdun EF II with 12, and EOG's four-well Monarch pad and Rosewood's three-well Connell Avant pad were approved the first week of 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 two giant Eagle Ford fields: Eagleville (Eagle Ford-1) for oil and Hawkville (Eagleford Shale) for condensate and gas, drilled continuously since 2010 and still the busiest permitting in South Texas.
The older and shallower zones: A.W.P. (Olmos), Pearsall and Lorenzo (Austin Chalk), and Tres Encanto (Escondido), small next to the shale but still on checks.
Wherever your tract sits in La Salle County, we will research it free and value it with the work shown.
