FAQ

Questions people ask

How many oil and gas wells are near Dalhart?

17 wells with a location on the Railroad Commission's map lie within 10 miles of Dalhart: 9 on leases that are producing, 5 not producing and 3 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 Dalhart?

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 Dallam County roll lists it.

Is drilling near Dalhart picking up or slowing down?

The state issued no drilling permit with a well location within 10 miles of Dalhart in the last two years. The nearest one is 15 miles south-east of town, issued May 15, 2026. A permit is permission to drill, not a well.

How much are the oil and gas near Dalhart worth?

The 6 producing leases with a well within 10 miles sold about $2.4 million of oil and gas in their newest 12 months on file, at the public monthly prices and before taxes and costs. That is what the leases sold, not what a tract of land or a mineral interest is worth: an owner is paid a share of one lease.

My checks from a lease here stopped. Why?

The usual reasons: the lease stopped producing, a new operator took it over, or the operator put the payments in suspense over a title or address question. Near Dalhart, 2 leases went quiet and 5 changed operator; both lists are on this page.
