Every active oil and gas operator in Wichita County, Texas. Operators include R2Q Operating and DARA Operating Company.
Quick answer
Two operators whose names Wichita County mineral owners often see on division orders are R2Q Operating (KMA Field waterfloods) and DARA Operating Company (Electra-Burkburnett trend leases). Many smaller operators also hold leases in the county.
For mineral owners, the practical step is to confirm the operator-of-record named on your division order or royalty statement, then use that name when you look up county activity or request an offer.
R2Q Operating operates a group of KMA Field waterflood units targeting the KMA / KMA Lime pay zone. R2Q’s operating philosophy emphasizes optimized injection patterns, modern artificial lift, and selective economic management. Operator-side risk is low. R2Q is a positive factor in mineral valuation for KMA Field interests.
DARA Operating Company operates legacy Electra-Burkburnett trend leases, largely under the Wichita County Regular field designation. DARA represents one of the deepest operator-tenure positions in north Texas; some of its family-name leases date to the 1912-1918 boom years — a track record that supports long valuation runways for mineral interests under the DARA umbrella.
Beyond R2Q and DARA, active next-tier private operators include:
Quatro Oil & Gas
Newport Operating
S&G Oil
Mountain Creek Oil Company
