Converse County Is Wyoming’s Top Oil County
Converse County produced about 45.4 million barrels of oil in 2025, roughly 43% of everything Wyoming produced, and its share was even higher in mid-2026. It also ranked fourth in the state for gas. It is where Wyoming’s drilling is concentrated: of the 14 rigs working in the state in July 2026, ten were in Converse County. Oil here is not new, either; the Big Muddy field west of Glenrock was discovered in 1916.
What makes Converse different is the number of formations stacked beneath it. The Niobrara produced about 24.6 million barrels of the county’s oil in 2025, more than half, followed by the Turner, the Sussex, the Teapot and the Parkman, with the Frontier, Mowry and Shannon behind them. A section that already has Niobrara wells can still be drilled in other formations, so an owner holding a producing royalty may also hold undeveloped zones that a buyer should value.
Much of the drilling runs through mixed federal and private ground. In December 2020 the Bureau of Land Management approved the Converse County Oil and Gas Project, up to 5,000 wells across a project area of about 1.5 million acres. Spacing units here often combine federal tracts with private minerals, and an owner who never signed a lease can be pooled by the Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, which since 2020 must pay unleased owners a cost-free royalty of at least 16% while the operator recovers its costs.
The operator names have shifted too. Commission records for 2026 list Continental, Devon, Anschutz, EOG, Occidental (filing as Anadarko E&P Onshore), WRC Energy, 1876 Resources and Sage Butte among the county’s operators. Devon completed its merger with Coterra in May 2026, and Occidental’s Wyoming wells still carry the Anadarko name, which explains why the company on a check stub may not match the one on the lease.
What We Check on a Converse County Interest
- Chain of title and the severance instrument in the Converse County Clerk’s records in Douglas.
- Which formations each unit well produces from, and which stacked zones remain undrilled under the tract.
- Federal tracts in the spacing unit and any communitization agreement.
- Pooling applications or orders, and whether you are leased or an unleased pooled owner.
- Lease royalty, deduction language and depth limits.
- Operator succession, so the decimal and the payor on your statement match the current operator.
Where Converse County Mineral Records Are Kept
The Converse County Clerk at 107 North 5th Street, Suite 114, in Douglas records deeds, leases, assignments and probate-related instruments. Permits, well files, production by formation, and spacing and pooling orders are held by the Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission in Casper, whose monthly hearing dockets are the best early warning of new units around a tract.
Converse County, Wyoming Mineral Rights FAQs
Can I sell my oil and gas rights in Converse County, Wyoming?
Yes. Whether you want to sell your oil rights, sell your gas rights, or sell your oil and gas royalty rights together, in Converse County they are all mineral or royalty interests, and we buy them for cash. That includes the full mineral estate, overriding royalties, unleased acreage and fractional shares inherited from family. If your deed or lease covers only certain depths or formations, we value exactly what you own.
How much are my mineral rights worth in Converse County?
It depends on the wells already producing under your tract, which formations they target, how many stacked zones are still undrilled, and your lease terms and decimal. Converse produces more oil than any other Wyoming county, but value is set by your units, so a recent statement or legal description is the right starting point.
We already have Niobrara wells. Can more be drilled under us?
Often, yes. Converse County produces from the Niobrara, Turner, Sussex, Teapot, Parkman, Frontier, Mowry and Shannon, and operators can develop several of them under the same section over time. We check what has been completed before treating a tract as fully developed.
What was the Converse County Oil and Gas Project?
It is a Bureau of Land Management approval issued in December 2020 for up to 5,000 oil and gas wells across a project area of about 1.5 million acres in the county. It covers drilling that involves federal land or minerals, which is why so many Converse County units mix federal and private tracts.
We received a pooling notice. What are our options?
You can lease, join the well as a working interest owner, or be pooled. If you are unleased and pooled, Wyoming law since 2020 pays you a cost-free royalty of at least 16% while the operator recovers 200% of drilling and completion costs on the first well and 150% on later wells, and you can elect to participate after payout. Read the application and hearing date carefully.
Why does the company on our check not match the one we leased to?
Converse County has seen years of consolidation. Occidental’s Wyoming wells are still filed under Anadarko E&P Onshore, and Devon completed its merger with Coterra in 2026. The Commission’s operator records show who operates each well today, and we can trace the account if payments stopped during a change.
