Frequently Asked Questions
Mineral management is the professional administration of mineral rights ownership. This includes tracking and verifying royalty payments, managing leases and division orders, communicating with operators on the owner's behalf, recovering underpayments and suspended funds, and providing comprehensive reporting and analytics.
Mineral management is valuable for owners who don't have time to manage their minerals themselves, have inherited minerals and need expert guidance, own interests across multiple states or operators, or want to ensure they're receiving proper payments.
Landman: Typically works on behalf of operators to acquire leases, research title, and secure mineral rights for development. Often works on a project basis.
Mineral Manager: Works on behalf of mineral owners to manage their assets, verify payments, and advocate for their interests. Provides ongoing services.
Valor provides mineral management services, advocating for mineral owners.
No. Valor is a professional services firm. We do NOT buy or sell mineral rights. We provide management, accounting, and consulting services to mineral owners and operators. If you're looking to sell mineral rights, we maintain a directory of reputable buyers at onevalor.com/mineral-buyers.
Operator services refers to the accounting and administrative functions that oil and gas operators (production companies) need to run their business. This includes production accounting (tracking volumes), revenue accounting (distributing funds to owners), Joint Interest Billing (billing working interest partners), owner relations (division orders, correspondence), and regulatory compliance (state reporting).
Many operators outsource these functions to firms like Valor to focus on operations rather than administration, access specialized expertise without hiring full-time staff, scale efficiently as their operations grow, and ensure compliance and accuracy.
Pricing varies based on the type of service (mineral management vs. operator services), complexity and volume of work, level of service required, and size of portfolio or operation. Contact Valor directly for a customized quote: [email protected] or (817) 370-0612.
Valor serves clients nationwide across all major U.S. oil and gas producing regions, with particular expertise in Texas (Permian, Eagle Ford, Haynesville), Oklahoma (STACK, SCOOP, Anadarko), New Mexico (Delaware Basin), North Dakota (Bakken), Louisiana, Colorado, Wyoming, and the Appalachian Basin (Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia).
