Continental Resources - Shut In Wells Carter County

General Mineral Rights Discussion
1

We have been receiving nice checks from Continental for several years and last year they were pushing to get us to lease additional areas.

All of a sudden they have stopped production even with oil prices so high and no one seems to know why. These are the wells I am referring to.

BRYANT 1-6-7XHW, BRYANT 2-6-7XHM, and COLUMBUS 1-36-25XHW: shut in since 02/03/2026, with the exception of a handful of days

- CHELSEA 1-12-1XHW: shut in since 01/18/2026, with the exception of a handful of days

- GAPSTOW 8-25-23XHM: shut in since 01/29/2026

Anyone know what is going on?

Thanks,

Be patient for a bit. Those wells are just on the edge of a very extensive drilling program that Continental is working through in 1S-3W and 2S-3W. They were probably shut in to protect them during the frac work on the many wells to the west.

They want the royalties from those wells as badly as you do! So they will turn them back on whenever it is safe to do so.
