Get Your Free ValuationOklahoma has been an oil state since the famous Glenn Pool discovery in 1905. Many families have roots in Oklahoma from the Land Run era, dust bowl migrations, or the oil boom years. As generations passed and family members moved to California, Oklahoma mineral rights often followed—passed down through wills and inheritances to heirs who've never set foot in the Sooner State.
Managing Oklahoma minerals from California means dealing with:
Confusing royalty statements from operators you've never heard of
Division orders requiring signatures
Oklahoma tax withholding and multi-state filing requirements
Tiny fractional interests scattered across multiple counties
No practical way to verify you're being paid correctly
If managing distant Oklahoma minerals feels like more trouble than it's worth, selling for a lump sum may be the right choice.
Horizontal Woodford and Springer development in Grady, Stephens, Garvin, McClain, and Carter counties. One of Oklahoma's most active drilling areas with strong oil and gas production.
Meramec and Woodford horizontal development in Canadian, Kingfisher, and Blaine counties. High-quality rock with multiple stacked pay zones.
Established production in western Oklahoma counties. Granite Wash, Cleveland, and Tonkawa formations have produced for decades and continue to generate royalties.
Eastern Oklahoma gas production in Coal, Pittsburg, and Hughes counties. Woodford Shale and conventional plays support ongoing development.
We also buy minerals in legacy fields across all 77 Oklahoma counties, including the Mississippian Lime, Hunton, and other conventional formations.

Oklahoma Context: Oklahoma mineral interests tend to be highly fractionated due to the state's history of allotments and land distributions. It's common to inherit tiny decimal interests (0.0001234, for example) that generate small checks but require the same paperwork as larger interests. Consolidating these into a lump sum often makes practical sense.

Oklahoma has produced oil and gas since 1897, and the Land Run of 1889 and subsequent allotments distributed land (and mineral rights) to many families. As generations passed and people moved west, many Oklahoma mineral interests ended up with heirs in California and other states.
SCOOP (South Central Oklahoma Oil Province) and STACK (Sooner Trend Anadarko Canadian and Kingfisher) are major horizontal drilling plays in the Anadarko Basin. They target the Woodford and Meramec formations with modern drilling techniques. These are currently Oklahoma's most active areas.
Oklahoma does withhold state income tax from royalty payments to non-residents. As a California resident, you'll also owe California state taxes on this income. However, you may be able to claim a credit on your California return for taxes paid to Oklahoma. Consult a tax professional for specifics.
Check any royalty statements, division orders, or inheritance documents you have. The Oklahoma Corporation Commission website has well and production information. Oklahoma county assessor records show mineral ownership. We can also research this for you at no cost when evaluating your minerals.
