West Texas (the Permian Basin), South Texas, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Colorado, and other places are all in need of good landmen. I would recommend becoming a member of the AAPL (landman.org) as well as any local landman associations. Taking classes on Petroleum Land Management if you are serious is never a bad idea. I would then look for a solid broker to get on with. All you need to do to find out if a broker is good is ask around locally. Getting online and checking out brokers is probably one of the better ways to find them if you are not local. I would also be sending out resumes to those folks as well. It might be worth it for you to get to a place like Denver, Midland, Texas, Houston, Dallas, or Oklahoma City and try to set up some interviews. It might be hard to get in initially, but if you’re willing to learn and work hard it’s a good job.
