Snyder, Hermleigh, Fluvanna, Ira: we buy minerals and royalties throughout Scurry County, home of the Kelly-Snyder field and Kinder Morgan's SACROC CO2 flood.
Scurry County is a one-unit county for most of the families who own minerals in it. Kelly-Snyder came in on the Canyon reef in 1948, the SACROC Unit took it over in 1953, and the CO2 flood Kinder Morgan runs there today produces about four fifths of everything that comes out of the county. SACROC royalties are old, steady, and endlessly subdivided: it is common for us to see a great-grandchild holding a few ten-thousandths of a unit tract interest on a check that has been coming since Eisenhower.
What produces here. Kelly-Snyder, which made 637,001 of the county's 933,036 barrels in August 2026, plus Diamond M (Canyon Lime Area), Garden City South (Wolfcamp), Cogdell, Sharon Ridge, and Corazon (San Andres). Railroad Commission production for July 2026: 928,833 barrels of oil and about 3.93 million Mcf of casinghead gas. Kinder Morgan Production produced 751,163 of the county's August barrels, and the other operators you will see on checks and in the county records include Three Span Oil and Gas, Occidental Permian, Browning Oil, Walsh and Watts, Crossroads Operating, and Oxy USA WTP. Drilling continues inside the floods: 36 new-drill permits approved between January and early November 2026, 32 of them Kinder Morgan directional wells in the SACROC and Diamond M units and four Three Span horizontals.
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.
Canyon Reef oil in the Horseshoe Atoll, discovered 1948, unitized in 1953, with CO2 injection recommended by the unit's engineers as early as 1968 and run by Kinder Morgan today; Kinder Morgan holds about 97 percent of the working interest in a roughly 50,000-acre unit.
