If your checks stopped

Leases near Electra that went quiet or changed hands

The two most common reasons a royalty check stops: the lease stopped reporting production, or a new company took it over and the paperwork is catching up.

40 leases reported nothing for a year or more

Leases that reported within the last four years and then stopped. The newest to stop first; 10 shown.

Is my lease still active?

109 leases got a new operator in two years

Checks often pause after a change while the new company sets up its owner records. The newest first; 10 shown.

My royalty checks stopped: what to do

From the monthly production reports operators file with the Railroad Commission. The newest months fill in late, so a lease is listed only after 12 months with no report.

FAQ

Questions people ask

How many oil and gas wells are near Electra?

6,008 wells with a location on the Railroad Commission's map lie within 10 miles of Electra: 2,990 on leases that are producing, 849 not producing and 2,169 plugged. The state also issued 13 drilling permits 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 Electra?

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 Wichita County roll lists it.

Search a name

Is drilling near Electra picking up or slowing down?

Drilling permits near Electra are rising: 8 permits in the last 12 months, 5 in the 12 months before. They are spread around town, with no side clearly ahead. The nearest is 5.8 miles south-west of the town's point. A permit is permission to drill, not a well.

How much are the oil and gas near Electra worth?

The 254 producing leases with a well within 10 miles sold about $36 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.

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

The county mineral roll still lists 47 accounts in the name of an estate on leases near Electra. 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?

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 Electra, 40 leases went quiet and 109 changed operator; both lists are on this page.

What to do when royalty checks stop

Own land or minerals near Electra?

47 accounts near Electra are still in the name of an estate. See whether a county roll lists your name, and get an email when a permit or a new well is filed near you.
