I recently inherited mineral rights from my grandmother. They are all located in Pittsburg county Oklahoma. These are there locations.
Section Eleven (11), Township Four (4) North, Range Fifteen (15) East
Sections Twenty Nine and Thirty (29 and 30), Township Six (6) North, Range Sixteen (16) East
Section Thirty One (31), Township Six (6) North, Range Sixteen (16) East
My question is how to do I find out how big these are and what do you do with these? Do you just hold onto them and hope for someone to contact you? or am I suppose to reach out to people for leasing?
It appears that all four sections have oil & gas production. 11-4-15, 30 & 31-4n-15E are being operated by Scout Energy out of Dallas.
Section 29 has a producing well operated by Foundation Energy in Addison, TX.
Contact both companies via their owner relations email address online and include the transfer of ownership. They will tell you whether your grandmother owned something, if they require further documentation, or what they need. You could even be proactive and send them both a w-9. They will need that.
You should also check unclaimed property in the state where your grandmother lived and Oklahoma to see if there are any funds that have been transferred to the state.
Thank you so much for helping me out! I reached out to both companies and both want the transfer of ownership, death certificate and W9 forms. I’m hoping this is good news?. I check unclaimed property for Oklahoma state and nothing came up for my grandmother.
Where did you look up this information to know drilling companies were on these sections of land? Just for future reference. Is there anything else I can proactively do with these mineral rights?
Also, is there any way to look up how much land they cover? I’m have a hard time doing this. I called Pittsburg county in Oklahoma to ask and they told me they do not have that information.
are you sure about unclaimed property? I looked up your grandmother’s name and found it listed. It was listed under the last name only and Scout Energy Management was shown to have submitted it.
Each section has 640 acres. But, your grandmother didn’t own all the section. The easiest way to figure out how much net acreage is to wait to see what the nri is on the check. That is an eight digit number such as .00392704. you take that number, multiply by 8 (probably) and multiply that by 640 and that will give you the amount of net acres.
