We have received numerous offers to purchase mineral rights in Grady County Section 34 Township 10N Range 6W, and Section 3 Township 9N Range 6W. We have less than 2 net acres in Section 3, but have 10 acres in Section 34. This is owned by my parents, and they have expressed an interest in selling some or all of it. Common sources are the Mississippian and Woodford. Not sure of the value. Can someone give some guidance on this? Thanks.

Much of the fair market value depends on whether you are leased, force pooled, operator, or drilled and producing. Also, if you are serious about selling find out how many acres you actually own. Offerers’ figures are sometimes inaccurate. Also the transaction cost will kill you on 2 acres but if you get together, and bundle, you will get a premium on a lump sum take it or leave it deal.
It is short sighted to negotiate on a per acre basis then take the buyer’s word for the number of acres.

For a purchase I would be thinking 15k to 20k per acre. Leases seem to be going for 5k to 7k even more if large tract. Remember; however, they probably won’t buy unless they can make a GREAT profile off you/your land. So, it’s always better to lease – go for 4-6k NMA 3-year lease - no extension no warranty no deductions!!! – and keep the minerals in your family – for your kids someday.

Thanks Gary,
Still have a lot of information to obtain and verify before we take any action. We still do not have a copy of leases and do not know yet if they were forced pooled. I have the operator, drilled, and producing information. Would love to verify the net acres (on the small tracts owned by my father, \> 2 acres), and assume that can only be done via abstract. If you have any more advice or if I’m wrong on anything let me know. I would prefer to keep the mineral rights, but my Dad is set on selling his small amount. Thanks again for your help.

Forgive my ignorance Gary, but if my parents’ mineral rights have been force pooled, would there still be a lease in existence that I can get a copy of from Linn Energy?

There is no lease if you are force pooled, but you can get a copy of the force pool order if you know the year it was pooled. It is available on the OCC website for free. If you need help finding it, let me know.
