In the Central Basin Platform — direct buyer, no brokers, no fees
Cochran County, on the New Mexico line south of Yoakum, sits on the Northwest Shelf of the Permian and is anchored by the giant Slaughter field — part of the Slaughter–Levelland San Andres trend, one of the largest shallow-oil trends in the basin, much of it under long-running waterflood and CO2 enhanced oil recovery.
Cochran County produces from shallow San Andres and Clearfork carbonates of the Northwest Shelf at relatively modest depths. The San Andres dolomite behind the Slaughter field has been waterflooded and CO2-flooded for decades and carries residual-oil-zone potential, with Glorieta and Clearfork adding additional pay.
Operators run San Andres and Clearfork waterfloods and CO2 EOR projects across Cochran County, supporting steady, long-duration royalty income — the same carbonate trend that drives neighboring Yoakum and Hockley counties.
Cochran County produces from shallow San Andres carbonate of the Northwest Shelf, anchored by the giant Slaughter field — much of it under long-running waterflood and CO2 enhanced oil recovery, which can make associated royalty interests unusually long-lived.
Yes. Cochran County lies on the Northwest Shelf of the Permian Basin along the New Mexico line, in the same San Andres carbonate trend as neighboring Yoakum and Hockley counties.

ARB is a direct buyer: no broker, and no fees or commissions at any point.
