Yes. Ector County is one of our top-tier acquisition areas. We can usually turn an offer around in 48 hours and we will compete on price for tracts inside the active development area.

Ector County sits along the southwest flank of the Midland Basin where Wolfcamp A, Wolfcamp B, and the Spraberry interval all carry economic horizontal inventory in different parts of the county. Activity is concentrated west of Odessa where the section thickens, with Spraberry and Wolfcamp benches frequently developed off the same pad. We underwrite each bench separately because different operators run different completion designs and decline curves, and because not every section has full stacked-pay potential — the Wolfcamp C/D contribution falls off east toward the basin margin.

Older vertical wells in the San Andres, Yates, Grayburg, and Clearfork are typically late-life with shallow declines and modest cash flow. We still pay for that PDP cash flow in our underwriting, but the bigger swing factor is whether the section has remaining horizontal inventory underneath the old vertical column. A tract held by a 1960s vertical well that has not yet been re-developed horizontally is a very different conversation than a tract where the horizontal has already been drilled — the first carries upside, the second is closer to a pure PDP play.

That is the Waha negative-pricing problem. Permian associated gas occasionally trades at zero or below at Waha when in-basin takeaway tightens (pipeline maintenance, capacity outages, demand drops). Operators can be paid less than zero for gas they have to move, and that flows through to royalty owners as a negative gas line on the check. It is a real cash-flow hit in the affected month but is not a reflection of well health — your oil line is what matters for long-run value.

Closings on Ector County mineral rights typically take 7 to 30 days from the date you accept our offer, depending on title complexity. We handle county-level title work, PSA drafting, mineral deed preparation, and notary coordination at our expense.

Just a tract description (abstract or survey, section/township/range, or a legal description from your deed) and any recent royalty check stubs if the interest is producing. You do not need to gather deeds or title opinions up front.
