Where We Buy · Wyoming · Johnson County ## Sell your Johnson County mineral rights. Buffalo, Kaycee, Linch: the most genuinely stacked county in the Powder River Basin, where one tract can support wells in six or seven different benches. [Get a Free Valuation](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/free-valuation/) or call or text [918-984-1645](tel:9189841645) Johnson County is the best stacked pay county in Wyoming and one of the most misvalued places we buy. The Wyoming State Geological Survey lists Frontier, Niobrara, Parkman, and Turner sandstones plus the Mowry Shale among the basin's most productive reservoirs, and Johnson has all of them. Anschutz Exploration has been the most active driller, including the basin's first three mile laterals, and its results in the Mowry have been strong. EOG, Continental, and Devon are also active. That stack is exactly what a mail merge offer ignores. An interest with one producing Turner well may have five or six more locations beneath and beside it in different benches. Pricing that off your current check assigns those a value of zero, which on core Johnson County acreage is most of what you own. When we underwrite here, remaining locations by bench, with the probability we applied and why, is an explicit line in what we send you. We will also tell you where we think a bench is speculative rather than counting it at full value. Underneath the oil development sits a large declining coalbed methane legacy from the Fort Union and Wyodak boom, which is why the county shows roughly 2,304 producing wells against nearly 24,000 drilled. Wyoming protects your check by statute under W.S. 30-5-304, there is no state income tax on your gain when you sell, and Wyoming has no dormant mineral act, so nothing here lapses for nonuse.

Rigs are currently active; permits are those approved in the last 90 days; completions are wells reporting first production in the last 90 days, which lags by state. A zero does not mean nothing is happening, only that nothing was reported in that window. Activity like this is exactly what moves mineral value. If it is happening near you, find out what your interest is worth before you take anyone's offer. Formations & Plays ## What produces here ### Mowry Deep and lightly drilled, but results have been strong. Anschutz landed two Mowry wells on a single three well pad alongside a Niobrara well. ### Niobrara and Turner Two of the Powder River Basin's most productive current reservoirs. ### Parkman, Sussex, Shannon and Teapot Upper Cretaceous sands carrying much of the county's oil development. ### Fort Union and Wyodak coalbed methane A very large legacy overprint from the 1990s and 2000s boom, now mostly declining or plugged.

Questions ## Straight answers for Johnson County owners Why do offers on my Johnson County minerals vary so much? Because the county is genuinely stacked and buyers count the stack very differently. Mowry, Niobrara, Turner, Parkman, Sussex, Shannon, and Teapot are all live targets, and a tract with one producing well may support several more in other benches. Anschutz drilled a three well pad here with one Niobrara well and two Mowry wells under the same acreage. A buyer pricing your interest as a multiple of your current check counts none of that. Ask any buyer for their location count by bench; if they cannot produce one, they are pricing your check rather than your minerals. There are old coalbed methane wells on my land that do not produce. Is that a problem? It can be. Johnson County carries a very large legacy coalbed methane overprint from the 1990s and 2000s: roughly 2,304 producing wells against about 23,987 total wells drilled, and that gap is mostly dead CBM. Wyoming has roughly 3,000 orphaned CBM wells basin wide. Orphaned wells are generally an operator and bonding issue rather than a mineral owner liability, but they affect surface diligence and they can complicate a sale. We handle it rather than discounting your price for it. Can an operator deduct gathering and compression from my Johnson County royalty? Generally not the costs of making the product marketable. Wyoming settles this by statute rather than case law. W.S. section 30-5-304 defines royalty as the mineral owner's share of production free of the costs of production, and expressly carves out only downstream transportation from the market pipeline entry point and plant processing. Gathering, dehydration, and compression to make gas marketable are not deductible. Cabot Oil and Gas v. Followill applies the statute.
