Data-backed story angles

Who really operates America's wells: the national operator leaderboard shows concentration by wells, permits, and DUC inventory — with each operator's state footprint.

The hidden tax on royalty checks: how post-production deductions (at-the-well vs. marketable-product) quietly shrink owner royalties, state by state, with the leading case law.

The next helium rush: where U.S. helium concentrations run high enough to matter, from the Hugoton to emerging non-hydrocarbon plays.
