Where We Buy · Texas · Ector County ## Sell your Ector County mineral rights. Odessa, Goldsmith, Notrees: 32,600 wells drilled under the Permian's largest city, which means an unusual number of small town lot and subdivision mineral interests. [Get a Free Valuation](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/free-valuation/) or call or text [918-984-1645](tel:9189841645) Ector County is Odessa, and Odessa changes what mineral ownership looks like here. Roughly 32,653 wells have been drilled in this county with about 7,770 still producing, and a meaningful share of the mineral estate sits under town lots and subdivisions rather than under ranch land. That produces very small decimals and a great many owners per section. It is the classic profile of an interest nobody will return a call about, because running title, preparing a deed, and recording it costs the same whether the interest is worth two thousand dollars or two hundred thousand. We buy them, with no minimum, and we pay all the closing costs. The county is also genuinely varied. Ector spans the Central Basin Platform, the eastern edge of the Midland Basin, and areas with real horizontal Barnett, Lower Spraberry and Wolfcamp A activity. A county average is meaningless here; your section is what matters. Five rigs were running and 34 permits were approved in the last 90 days. Occidental, Diamondback, Formentera Partners, and Aghorn Energy are the largest producing operators. As everywhere in Texas, legal descriptions run on abstracts and surveys rather than section, township and range, there is no general forced pooling, and there is no state income tax, so nothing is withheld from your proceeds at closing. Send whatever you have, even if it is only an address and an old check stub, and we will find the interest and value it free.

Yes, and we are one of few buyers who will look at it. Odessa is the largest city in the Permian Basin, so a meaningful share of Ector County minerals sit under town lots and subdivisions. That produces very small decimals and a great many owners per section, which is exactly the profile most buyers decline because the cost of running title and recording a deed does not scale down. We have no minimum and we pay all closing costs. Is there still horizontal drilling in Ector County? Yes, at a steady pace. Five rigs were running and 34 permits were approved in the last 90 days, and roughly 7,770 wells produce out of about 32,653 drilled. Occidental, Diamondback, Formentera Partners, and Aghorn Energy are the largest producing operators. What is my Ector County interest actually worth? It depends far more on your specific section than on the county. Ector spans the Central Basin Platform, the eastern Midland Basin edge, and areas with meaningful horizontal Barnett, Spraberry and Wolfcamp activity, and those are very different assets. A county average tells you nothing useful. Send us the survey and abstract and we will run your actual wells and remaining locations. ## Before you sign anything in Ector County The things owners here most often wish they had read first.
