I have an offer for $300 per acre with 1/5 royalty. I am wondering if this is a decent offer and if there is any information about activity in Lubbock County.

I’m not sure about Lubbock County. It’s crazy south of here. I know owners are getting much more than $300 per acre, and I would never settle for less than 1/4 royalty. Not worth it.

My family has unleased mineral rights to 640 acres in Lubbock County. We have been approached by KEW Drilling offering $200.00 per acre with 3/16 royalty on a 3 year term. From my research it appears to be a standard lease with items we would want to further negotiate. Has anyone dealt with this company before? Also what are the market values in Lubbock County for this type of lease? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Bryan:
I have not heard of anyone accepting less than 1/4 royalty, but my experiences are south of Lubbock County, and central TX.

I and at least one neighbor with 360 to 640 acres have been approached by Kew Drilling with a $200/acre 1/5 royalty offer, 3 years plus 2-year option. For RL Moore: you had an offer of $300 in Lubbock County? From whom, if I might ask?
Does anyone know anything about Kew? They claim to have leased about 8,000+ acres in Hockley and Lubbock counties. I’m looking over a lease from them at the moment. Any info would be appreciated.

Debra, It is with Four Sevens Exploration Co., LTD. I don’t know anything about them or the one you mentioned.

Does anyone have information on bonus and royalty offers for Hale County? It appears there is not a forum established for this County. I have a family member that has been approached and trying to get an understanding of the types of offers being extended in this county. Thanks!

There’s very little production in Hale County, and most of it is in the far southwest corner of the county. If that’s where it is, it may be best to compare with the corners of Lamb, Hockley, Lubbock counties.
I have some minerals near Hale Center, but they have been unleased forever. There’s a lot more activity on my farms in Hockley County.
You might be looking at $200 for a 3/16 lease in that corner of Hale County, but that’s a rough guess. Maybe someone else has leased something recently.

I have mineral rights northeast of Idalou in Lubbock County that are leased. I know a lot of other rights have leased in that area. Can anyone tell me if there are signs of possible drilling going on or new activity? I don’t live there so I can’t see for myself. Any updates from around Idalou would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Stephen, I am wondering how do you know this about the new permit by Four Sevens? I looked on the TX RR Comm. and did not see anything. Perhaps it is too new to show up on there yet?

Michael, look around you. Empresa Drilling of Lubbock Highway first horizontal at 13200 in Lubbock County. Ask for more money; don’t tell them that I said to 775, they hate that number. Ask 777. I have gotten 775 twice this year.

David, in response to your question, I think that is a good offer. I have leased several portions of my land for similar terms in and around that area you are referencing.

Thanks Brad, I really appreciate it. I live in Victoria, Texas, so it’s hard to keep an eye on what’s going on. I’m a first-timer in this business. But this looks promising so I might look into investing. I don’t know. But thanks again.
