Buckhead Energy buys Western Haynesville mineral rights across the emerging Brazos, Grimes, Madison, Robertson, and Leon county play north of the historic Haynesville core.
Mineral interests in Brazos, Grimes, Madison, Robertson, and Leon counties.
Start NowTL;DR The Western Haynesville is the recent extension of the Haynesville/Bossier shale gas play north and west of the historic Louisiana–East Texas core. Comstock Resources has led the de-risking of deep horizontal gas production at depths exceeding 15,000 feet across Robertson, Madison, Brazos, Grimes, and Leon counties in East-Central Texas. Many sections support stacked Austin Chalk and deep Haynesville development.
The Western Haynesville is the recent extension of the Haynesville/Bossier shale gas play north and west out of the historic Louisiana–East Texas core. Discovery and de-risking work led principally by Comstock Resources (NYSE: CRK) has demonstrated commercial gas production from deep Haynesville and Bossier intervals at depths often exceeding 15,000 feet TVD across Robertson, Madison, Brazos, Grimes, and Leon counties. The play remains in earlier-stage development relative to the Haynesville core in DeSoto, Sabine, and Caddo parishes of Louisiana, but multiple horizontal completions have validated commercial potential.
For mineral owners in this corridor, the practical effect is that previously undeveloped or shallow-leased acreage may now sit above an active deep horizontal play. Many leases drafted before 2018–2020 in these counties were oriented toward shallow conventional or Austin Chalk targets and may not optimally address the Western Haynesville depth window.
Buckhead Energy buys mineral rights, royalty interests, and overriding royalty interests across the Western Haynesville county footprint.
A typical Western Haynesville section can hold productive intervals from the surface conventional and Austin Chalk window down to the deep gas shales:
Austin Chalk: Cretaceous chalk, 8,000–11,000 ft TVD. Active hybrid play across Brazos, Grimes, Burleson.
Eagle Ford / Woodbine: Cretaceous source rocks where present, oil and condensate window.
Bossier Shale: Upper Jurassic shale, depth varies by county.
Haynesville Shale: Upper Jurassic organic-rich shale, 13,500–17,000 ft TVD across the Western Haynesville. Dry gas with elevated pressure.
Smackover Formation: Jurassic carbonate underlying the Haynesville. Historic oil producer in some sections; modern interest as a lithium brine source.
Robertson County — Comstock activity core; deep Haynesville/Bossier.
Madison County — Step-out development; stacked Austin Chalk + deep Haynesville.
Leon County — Active permitting; deep Haynesville window.
Brazos County — Austin Chalk + Western Haynesville stacked potential.
Grimes County — Active Austin Chalk + Western Haynesville fairway.
