The ringed dot is this lease's well, where the Railroad Commission's map puts it. The other dots are wells and drilling permits of the last 24 months on the land around it; the counts are for everything in the picture, which is about 6 miles across. The thin brown lines are the original land surveys; where there is room, a survey carries its abstract number, the number deeds and division orders cite.

From the state record
What owners ask about Axis
- When is the check for August 2026 due?
- August 2026 is the newest month the state has posted for this lease. Texas law gives the payor until 60 days after the end of the sale month for oil and 90 for gas: the oil by Oct 30, 2026 and the gas by Nov 29, 2026, unless the lease sets another time.
- Source: Railroad Commission production reports; Texas Natural Resources Code §91.402.
- See your next three checks
- Which Texas production tax rate applies?
- The Texas Comptroller lists no approved exemption or reduced rate for this lease for August 2026, so the full 4.6% on oil and 7.5% on gas applies.
- Source: Texas Comptroller, approved severance tax exemptions.
- Check the tax on your stub
- Who buys the oil and gas?
- Oil: Scm Ops, LLC, Matador Production Company and Plains Marketing, L.p. gather it. Gas from oil wells: Matador Production Company and Enterprise Products Operating LLC buy and gather it; Et Gathering & Processing LLC, Oneok Gas Marketing, L.p., Scm Ops, LLC and Targa Northern Delaware LLC buy it. The buyer's price is what a royalty check is figured on.

- See every buyer and past buyers
- How many 1099s should an owner expect for 2025?
- Two companies filed this lease's reports behind 2025 checks: Ameredev Texas, LLC and Matador Production Company. An owner paid by more than one of them gets a form from each. The operator is not always the company that pays, so go by the names on the stubs.
