I have paperwork on oil and gas leases my father owns in Oklahoma and

New Mexico. How do I find up to date info on leases, whether they are

producing or not. I’m new at this.

Hi, Wendell! Welcome to The Forum.

I take it you mean that your father owns mineral or royalty rights. If he owned leases, he’d be in the oil and gas industry, drilling wells.

First thing to do is to see what, if anything, is going on on the lands or including the lands. If you will post the legal descriptions for each of the properties and we’ll take a look at the maps and have a looksee.

If you would prefer to send them more privately, click on my name where it appears in blue and invite me to become a friend on The Forum. You can send them that way instead of here on the General Forum Page.

If he is or has ever received any royalties from the properties, you might want to send copies of those as well.

Hi Wendell,

I have luck searching the New Mexico database for New Mexico minerals. Here’s a link where you can search for production, drilling, etc.
