Continental drilled numerous horizontal wells on Section 33, Township 6N, Range 5W in Grady County a few years ago. Initially the royalties were impressive, but not anymore. They have diminished to the point it might make sense to sell. Can anyone confirm what is happening in that area and if the two-thirds reduction in royalties is consistent for a well starting production in 2020?

The volume decline for these wells is very normal for horizontal wells. Take into account the drastic change in oil and gas prices over the last few years. The royalties reflect that variety. Can go up, can go down.

These wells have about two thirds of their volumes left. Probably take decades to recover. Most offers to buy are for a discounted cash flow over a 3-5 years depending upon the buyer. Up to you to decide whether you want long term royalty income that you can invest in other income producing instruments or if you want to cash out now. Consult your CPA for tax implications of long term capital gains of selling.

Has anyone offered to buy your minerals in the last 6 months?

Thank you for your reply. I have noticed you are the workhorse when it comes to providing answers to those of us less knowledgeable. It is appreciated.

Martha - Is there a public dataset that shows volume remaining in a horizontal well or fields? That’s something I’ve been looking for covering Texas and Oklahoma but anything I’ve found so far is a paid service.

Not a free one that I know of unless you know how to the do the equations yourself. Each well’s decline can be calculated based upon its past performance and an extension of the that decline, but engineers may pick slightly different decline curve equations. There are paid services where you can get estimates.
