Market data, read from the seller’s side
Every buyer who mails an offer has looked at these numbers first. This is the same public data — prices, rigs, permits, production, and the wells themselves — framed for the question that matters to you: what is my interest worth right now?
Oil & Gas Prices
WTI and Henry Hub history plus world supply/demand — the backdrop every offer is priced against, and the first thing to check before accepting one.
WTI, last 15 yrs
Rig Count
Active rigs by basin. Rising rigs near your minerals mean buyers are underwriting growth they may not be telling you about.
US rigs, weekly
Drilling Permits
Approved new-drill permits by state, monthly. Permits are the clearest public signal of upside — the part of value first offers pay for least.
TX permits, 12-mo avg
Production
Oil and gas production by state. The trend behind your royalty checks, and the context for any income-multiple valuation.
TX oil, Mbbl/d
Well Map
See the wells around your minerals — active, permitted, and plugged. Activity on the map is value on the table.
