Where We Buy · Pennsylvania · Sullivan County ## Sell your Sullivan County mineral rights. Laporte, Dushore, Forksville: a county of about six thousand people producing more than three percent of Pennsylvania's natural gas, essentially from one operator. [Get a Free Valuation](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/free-valuation/) or call or text [918-984-1645](tel:9189841645) Sullivan County is small, rural, and quietly one of Pennsylvania's most productive gas counties per well. Roughly 173 active wells out of 498 drilled produced about 22.9 million Mcf in a recent month, roughly 3.5 percent of all Pennsylvania gas and eighth statewide, from a county of about 6,000 people. Per tract royalty values here can be high. Two things define the county for an owner. First, operator concentration: Expand Energy operates about 169 of the 173 active wells, on legacy Chief Oil and Gas acreage. That is essentially a one operator county, which matters for reporting, payment timing, and how one corporate decision ripples through everybody's checks. Second, the Chief legacy itself. Chief's assets were split, with portions going to BKV and portions to Chesapeake, now Expand. Payor changes are the most common reason an owner believes their royalty stopped when it has actually just moved, and old division orders here frequently name entities that no longer pay. Large State Game Lands and Loyalsock State Forest acreage limits the private mineral base, which makes the private tracts here comparatively scarce. Deductions are lawful in Pennsylvania under Kilmer v. Elexco, so your lease language drives a large share of value. We read it, show you the arithmetic both ways, and tell you honestly if holding beats selling. Send the lease and a statement.

[Read the Pennsylvania guide](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/guide/pennsylvania/) Questions ## Straight answers for Sullivan County owners How can such a small county produce so much gas? Because the wells are very good and the county is small. Sullivan has only 498 wells drilled and 173 active, but produced roughly 22.9 million Mcf in a recent month, about 3.5 percent of all Pennsylvania gas and eighth statewide, from a county of roughly 6,000 people. That concentration means per tract royalty values here can be unusually high, and it also means a county average tells you nothing about your specific unit. My checks used to come from Chief and now they come from someone else. What happened? Chief Oil and Gas held the legacy acreage across much of Sullivan County, and Chief's assets were split, with portions going to BKV and portions to Chesapeake, which is now Expand Energy. Expand operates roughly 169 of the county's 173 active wells today. Payor changes like that are the single most common reason an owner thinks their royalty stopped when it did not. If your checks changed hands and something looks wrong, send us the old and new statements and we will read them. Is it risky that one company operates almost everything here? It is a real concentration, and worth naming. Essentially all Sullivan County production runs through one operator. That affects reporting quality, payment timing, and how a single corporate decision can affect an entire county's owners. It does not make your interest less valuable, but it is a factor a serious buyer accounts for and most will not mention. ## Before you sign anything in Sullivan County The things owners here most often wish they had read first.
