FAQ

Questions people ask

How many wells were permitted in Mitchell County in the last year?

The Railroad Commission issued 29 drilling permits in Mitchell County in the twelve months to September 21, 2026, and recorded 33 completions and 1 first-production report. A permit is permission to drill, not a well.

How do I get an alert when a permit is issued near my land in Mitchell County?

Choose your abstract on this page, or the whole county, and sign in. You get one email a week, only when something new is recorded after you sign up. The alert says whether an event is on an interest in your Mineral File, on a place you follow, or only nearby.

When is my first royalty check due after a new well?

Natural Resources Code section 91.402(a) says on or before 120 days after the end of the month of first sale of production from the well. The state's first-production month is the closest public marker, so the date on this page is the earliest, not a certainty.

Work out the first-check date

Got a new well on your land?

The first check is due within 120 days after the end of the month of first sale.
