When a new well starts paying

First checks coming due near Borger

First checks fell due on leases near Borger in the last month. Texas law gives the payor 120 days after the end of the month of first sale.

The date is the earliest the law allows a first payment to be late (Texas Natural Resources Code 91.402), worked out from the first month of production on file. It is not a promise of a check: title questions and unsigned division orders can hold one back. Work out a first-check date · What to do before the first check

FAQ

Questions people ask

How many oil and gas wells are near Borger?

3,707 wells with a location on the Railroad Commission's map lie within 10 miles of Borger: 1,597 on leases that are producing, 1,245 not producing and 865 plugged. The state issued no drilling permit with a well location in that circle in the last 24 months.

What are the coordinates on this page?

Latitude and longitude of the well's surface location in NAD83, the coordinates map apps use. They come from the Railroad Commission's well layers as published, and from its drilling permit files, which are published in the older NAD27 and converted here. Paste them into any map app. A horizontal well's bottom hole can be a mile or two away from its surface location.

Do I own minerals under a well near Borger?

A well nearby says nothing about who owns the minerals under it. The county's mineral roll lists who is paid on each producing lease. Search a name to see whether the Hutchinson County roll lists it.

Search a name

Is drilling near Borger picking up or slowing down?

The state issued no drilling permit with a well location within 10 miles of Borger in the last two years. The nearest one is 10 miles east of town, issued January 22, 2025. A permit is permission to drill, not a well.

When does a new well near Borger start paying royalties?

Texas law gives the payor 120 days after the end of the month of first sale to send the first payment (Natural Resources Code 91.402). The date is the earliest a first payment becomes late, not a promise: a title question or an unsigned division order can hold a check back.

Work out a first-check date

How much are the oil and gas near Borger worth?

The 345 producing leases with a well within 10 miles sold about $20 million of oil and gas in their newest 12 months on file, at the public monthly prices and before taxes and costs.

A relative owned minerals near Borger and has died. What now?

The county mineral roll still lists 149 accounts in the name of an estate on leases near Borger. Search the family name first. If an account turns up, the title usually has to be moved to the heirs before the operator will pay them.

Inherited minerals: where to start

My checks from a lease here stopped. Why?
