Alfalfa County is northern Oklahoma Mississippi Lime, and it is one of the counties where the play's water problem hit hardest. Roughly 1,247 wells produce out of about 4,267 drilled, with no rigs and no permits in the recent window.

The short history: the horizontal Mississippian ran hard from roughly 2011 to 2015 and then slowed sharply. The wells produced very large volumes of water relative to oil, disposal costs rose, returns disappointed, and northern Oklahoma also saw induced seismicity concerns tied to disposal volumes that brought regulatory action on injection.

We put that up front because Alfalfa acreage still gets marketed on boom era numbers. An honest valuation prices the wells that exist, models their actual decline, and applies a realistic probability to future drilling rather than a promotional one. We show you both components and the assumptions behind each.

Wells that survived the cycle have generally settled into a predictable decline, which makes them relatively easy to value honestly. That is a real income asset even if it is not an exciting one.

SandRidge, Mach Natural Resources, Revolution Resources, and Superior Production are among the largest producing operators.

If you are unleased and a well is proposed, expect a Corporation Commission pooling order with a 20 day election window, and note that failing to elect generally means you are deemed to have taken the smallest royalty and largest bonus. See our [forced pooling guide](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/forced-pooling-oklahoma/).

Questions

## Straight answers for Alfalfa County owners

Why did the Mississippi Lime slow down in Alfalfa County?
Chiefly water. Mississippi Lime wells across northern Oklahoma produced very large volumes of water relative to oil, which drove up disposal costs and hurt returns, and the play slowed sharply after roughly 2015. Alfalfa was one of the counties where that hit hardest. There are currently no rigs and no permits in the recent window. We price the existing wells and apply a realistic probability to any future drilling rather than a boom era one.

Is my Alfalfa County interest still generating income?
Likely yes, at a modest and slowly declining level. Roughly 1,247 wells produce out of about 4,267 drilled. Mississippian wells that survived the cycle tend to have settled into a predictable decline, which is straightforward to model and therefore straightforward to value honestly. SandRidge, Mach Natural Resources, Revolution Resources, and Superior Production are among the largest producing operators.

There is a lot of saltwater disposal activity in this area. Does it affect me?
It can affect the operators' economics rather than your ownership directly, and it was a central reason the play slowed. Northern Oklahoma also saw induced seismicity concerns tied to disposal volumes, which led to regulatory action on injection. None of that changes what you own, but it is part of why development here has been quiet, and an honest valuation accounts for it instead of assuming drilling resumes on schedule.
