FOR ARIZONA RESIDENTS
We help Arizona residents sell mineral rights in the Delaware Basin and Permian Basin areas of New Mexico. Your neighbor state—but still out of reach for easy management.
Get Your Free Written OfferNew Mexico and Arizona share a border, but that doesn't make managing New Mexico mineral rights from Arizona any easier. The producing areas of southeastern New Mexico are hundreds of miles from Phoenix, Tucson, or other Arizona population centers.
Many Arizona residents own New Mexico minerals through inheritance or past investments in the Permian Basin. The Delaware Basin portion of southeast New Mexico has become one of the most active drilling regions in the country, making these minerals increasingly valuable—and increasingly complex to manage:
Understanding New Mexico mineral and pooling laws
Dealing with multiple operators in Lea and Eddy counties
Tracking production across different formations
Filing New Mexico income tax returns for royalty income
We buy minerals throughout New Mexico. The state's oil and gas production is concentrated in specific areas:
The western portion of the Permian Basin, one of the most active drilling regions in North America. Counties: Lea, Eddy. Multiple pay zones: Wolfcamp, Bone Spring, Avalon.
Southeast New Mexico shares the prolific Permian Basin with West Texas. Same geology, same operators, same value potential.
Northwest New Mexico natural gas production. Counties: San Juan, Rio Arriba. Mature basin with legacy production.
Production also occurs in Chaves, Roosevelt, and other counties with varying levels of activity.
Arizona and New Mexico are neighbors, but the producing areas of New Mexico (Lea and Eddy counties) are actually closer to Texas than to most of Arizona. Driving from Phoenix to Carlsbad (heart of the Delaware Basin) is over 450 miles.
Many Arizona residents inherited New Mexico minerals from family who worked in the oil fields, ranched in southeastern New Mexico, or invested in the Permian during earlier booms. Converting these distant assets to cash eliminates the ongoing management burden.
