Oil and Gas Appraisal and Valuation Services

Appraisal in oil and gas is the process of evaluating an asset’s development potential, ownership position, title status, lease obligations, and commercial risks before investment or operations proceed. For land and mineral assets, this often includes title research, leasehold review, production checks, encumbrance identification, and due diligence to help determine whether the opportunity is legally and operationally viable.

An appraisal well is a well drilled after an initial discovery to gather more information about the size, quality, and commercial potential of a reservoir. It helps operators understand whether further development is justified. MAJR Resources does not drill wells, but supports the land, leasehold, title, and ownership work that helps clients evaluate development opportunities before operations advance.

MAJR Resources supports valuation decisions by verifying ownership, reviewing leasehold status, identifying title defects, checking production or pooling issues, and conducting acquisition due diligence. These services help clients better understand risk, obligations, and asset readiness. The goal is to provide the land and mineral intelligence needed before purchasing, leasing, developing, or divesting oil and gas interests.

Key documents often include deeds, leases, assignments, pooling agreements, division orders, probate records, title opinions, tax records, production data, and county courthouse filings. MAJR Resources reviews public and private land records to build ownership history, identify encumbrances, and confirm whether leasehold or mineral interests are properly documented before clients make investment decisions.

A cursory lease check can sometimes be completed in just a few hours when records are available and the question is narrow. More complex valuation support, such as multi-county title research, heirship investigation, acquisition due diligence, or curative review, takes longer because ownership, encumbrances, and obligations must be verified carefully before conclusions are reliable.

Yes. MAJR Resources provides due diligence for acquisitions of any size, from smaller leasehold reviews to major multi-regional transactions. The process can include ownership verification, obligation review, risk identification, compliance checks, title research, and documentation support so buyers can better understand what they are acquiring before closing or committing development capital.

Mineral ownership verification is critical because unclear ownership can delay leasing, payments, drilling schedules, and division order processing. Research may uncover heirship issues, missing conveyances, liens, easements, or conflicting claims. Confirming ownership early helps operators negotiate with the correct parties, reduce legal exposure, and avoid costly downtime once a project is ready to move forward.

MAJR Resources serves energy clients across Texas and the United States. Founded in Monahans, Texas, the company has grown from oil and gas leasing work into broader landman, mineral rights, renewable development, and infrastructure support. Service scope depends on the project’s location, record availability, and the type of research or due diligence required.
