Sell Mineral Rights in Sand Springs, TX
Sand Springs is a small Howard County community near Big Spring, in a part of the Midland Basin that's been producing since long before the modern shale era, with newer horizontal wells layered on top of old vertical development.
Howard County has a long production history, which means a Sand Springs-area mineral interest could be tied to an old vertical well, a newer horizontal well, or both under different formations. The tract desk checks which is actually the case before quoting, because the underwriting looks different for each.
The tract desk also checks whether any of the older Howard County vertical wells near your tract have been plugged, since a plugged well doesn't necessarily mean your interest has no value -- it can simply mean that specific wellbore reached the end of its economic life while the formation remains a candidate for future horizontal development.
Old vertical wells versus new horizontals
Legacy vertical wells in Howard County tend to produce small, steady volumes over very long periods, while newer horizontal Wolfcamp or Spraberry wells show the classic steep-decline-then-flatten shale curve. Your royalty statement will tell the tract desk which pattern applies, and it model each differently.
Some tracts here have both -- older vertical production plus a newer horizontal well drilled through additional zones. If that's your situation, the tract desk confirms the full picture from Railroad Commission records rather than just your most recent statement.
What this means for your offer
Long-lived legacy production and newer horizontal development both have real, calculable value, just different decline shapes. The tract desk builds the number to reflect exactly what's producing under your specific tract today.
Fix the Property Line First
Every review begins with the county record, legal description, ownership fraction, lease position, producing status, wells, units, and paid decimal. Surface location can help find a tract, but it does not prove the mineral interest or participation in nearby development.
Place the Tract in the Producing Context
Formation, field, well vintages, spacing, operator acreage, offsets, permits, and development pace around a subject tract belong in separate evidence lanes. The property's own history carries more weight than activity that does not include the acreage.
Reconcile the Revenue Line
Statements, division orders, unit records, volumes, prices, taxes, deductions, downtime, adjustments, burdens, and decimal changes should reconcile before current revenue or remaining production is projected for the tract.
Write the Conveyance
The written purchase file should identify the right conveyed, county, legal description, fractions or acres, depths, products, wells, units, reservations, effective date, receivables, title standard, adjustment rights, funding, and recording sequence.

Owner Questions for This Texas Property File
Resolve these owner questions before a Texas mineral purchase is reduced to a single dollars-per-acre number.
How Do owners know if the owner's well is old vertical or new horizontal?
Your division order or statement usually references a well name and API number -- the tract desk looks that up in Railroad Commission records to confirm which type of well and formation applies.
Is steady, low-volume production from an old well worth much?
It can be, especially given how long it's likely to continue. The tract desk model long-term value from that steady curve rather than dismissing low current volume.
Could the owner's tract have both old and new wells producing?
Yes, that's common in long-developed Permian counties like Howard. The tract desk confirms the full picture before quoting.
Is Howard County still seeing new drilling?
It sees periodic horizontal development depending on operator focus and commodity prices; the tract desk checks current permits near your tract as part of underwriting.
What if the old well on the owner's tract has been plugged?
A plugged legacy well doesn't rule out future value -- the formation can still be a candidate for horizontal development. The tract desk checks for nearby modern drilling activity as part of underwriting.
