FAQ

Questions people ask

How many oil and gas wells are near Lytle?

2,355 wells with a location on the Railroad Commission's map lie within 10 miles of Lytle: 1,598 on leases that are producing, 253 not producing and 504 plugged. The state also issued 12 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 Lytle?

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 Atascosa County roll lists it.

Search a name

Is drilling near Lytle picking up or slowing down?

Drilling permits near Lytle are rising: 11 permits in the last 12 months, 1 in the 12 months before. Most of them are north of town: 12 of 12 lie on that side. The nearest is 1.8 miles north-west of the town's point. A permit is permission to drill, not a well.

How much are the oil and gas near Lytle worth?

The 245 producing leases with a well within 10 miles sold about $4.8 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 Lytle and has died. What now?

The county mineral roll still lists 65 accounts in the name of an estate on leases near Lytle. 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 Lytle, 6 leases went quiet and 15 changed operator; both lists are on this page.

What to do when royalty checks stop

Own land or minerals near Lytle?

65 accounts near Lytle 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.
