The Permian Basin is the largest oil-producing region in the United States, split into the Midland Basin on the east (Texas) and the Delaware Basin on the west (West Texas and southeast New Mexico). Stacked pay zones — Wolfcamp, Spraberry, Bone Spring, and more — let operators drill multiple horizontal targets from one location, which is why Permian mineral and royalty interests are among the most sought-after in the country.
Where your tract sits matters enormously: a core Midland or Delaware unit with strong operators and undrilled locations is a very different asset than acreage on the basin edge.

What are Texas mineral rights worth?

The core Texas counties include Midland, Martin, Howard, Glasscock, Upton, Reagan, Andrews, Ector, Reeves, Ward, and Loving; in New Mexico, Lea and Eddy lead the Delaware Basin. The map above plots the main ones.
They are the two halves of the Permian. The Midland Basin is the eastern sub-basin (Texas); the Delaware Basin is the western sub-basin spanning far West Texas and southeast New Mexico, generally deeper with thicker pay.
Send your county and legal description (or a recent royalty statement) and Buckhead Energy will evaluate your interest from current production and well data and provide a free written offer. We buy throughout the Permian in both states.
