What became of the 24 permits

  • 1finished, no production reported yetA completion is on file. The first production report follows weeks or months later.
  • 2drilling startedThe operator reported a start date. No completion is on file yet.
  • 11still only a permitNothing after the permit is on file. Many permits wait a year or more, and some are never drilled.

Wells finished in the last two years: 1 south-east, 1 south, 1 south-west, 7 west, 1 north-west of town.

A horizontal well runs sideways underground. 3 wells start outside the 10-mile circle and end inside it. 1 starts inside and ends outside. So a well can drain land a mile or two from the spot where it shows on a map.

A permit is permission to drill, not a well, and a well nearby says nothing about who owns the minerals under it. Direction is taken from the well's surface location. Source: Railroad Commission of Texas drilling permits and wellbore records.

When a new well starts paying

First checks coming due near Hamlin

2 first checks fall due on leases with a well near Hamlin from today on. 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

The middle bonus was $150 an acre, the usual royalty 10%, the usual term 3 years; the newest is dated April 15, 2025. Private leases are not public, so these are the nearest figures on record.

FAQ

Questions people ask

How many oil and gas wells are near Hamlin?

793 wells with a location on the Railroad Commission's map lie within 10 miles of Hamlin: 385 on leases that are producing, 143 not producing and 265 plugged. The state also issued 24 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 Hamlin?

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 Fisher County roll lists it.

Search a name

Is drilling near Hamlin picking up or slowing down?

Drilling permits near Hamlin are falling: 9 permits in the last 12 months, 15 in the 12 months before. Most of them are west of town: 19 of 24 lie on that side. The nearest is 2.0 miles west of the town's point. A permit is permission to drill, not a well.

When does a new well near Hamlin 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 next date on file for a lease near Hamlin is December 29, 2026. 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 Hamlin worth?

The 113 producing leases with a well within 10 miles sold about $29 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 Hamlin and has died. What now?

The county mineral roll still lists 123 accounts in the name of an estate on leases near Hamlin. 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 Hamlin, 10 leases went quiet and 35 changed operator; both lists are on this page.

What to do when royalty checks stop

Own land or minerals near Hamlin?

The next first check near Hamlin falls due by December 29, 2026. See whether a county roll lists your name, and get an email when a permit or a new well is filed near you.
