Help with finding well information

General Mineral Rights Discussion
1

I wasn’t sure what category to post this as it pertains to 4 different states. I have 2 needs:

  1. Our family were left mineral rights in my father’s will. We’re having difficulty finding out where some of the wells are located since we were left those as well though only one is still producing. We know they’re in OK, TX, LA, and AR but all we have are well names. Some of the wells I have located like one in OK but the rest evade me. Is there somewhere I can find wells by well name and not API# ? Any help you can give me would be appreciated.
  2. The one well we know about in Ellis County, OK lists the operator who will not return our calls and won’t return the many emails we’ve sent. Does anyone have any experience getting operators to reply? We’ve been approached by 4 or 5 companies to either sell or lease our interest and they’re needing a copy of royalty payments over the past year.

Thanks
