Fort Worth and its suburbs sit on the most re-completed gas field in America. If your Barnett checks shrank to nothing years ago, the wells under you may not be finished.
Tarrant County is the densest concentration of mineral owners in the Barnett, and most of them concluded a decade ago that the play was over. The data says otherwise: more Barnett wells have first produced in Tarrant County since January 2024 than in any other county, and there are 36 approved permits in the last 90 days. BKV Corporation holds the largest position with roughly 2,100 producing wells, with TotalEnergies at about 1,100 behind them.
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 units rather than off a county average, 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.
Well, rig and permit counts are sourced from Enverus and current as of August 2026. See our Barnett Shale page for how the play as a whole is valued.
The play that started American shale gas, drilled hard from 2002 to 2012 and now being re-completed. Tarrant has more Barnett wells first producing since January 2024 than any other county.
Operators are going back into existing wellbores rather than drilling new ones. A refrac on your unit can restart a check that stopped years ago, and it is not something a valuation based on last year's income can see.
Wherever your tract sits in Tarrant County, we will research it free and value it with the work shown.
