Live NMOCD compulsory pooling docket June 23 — Mewbourne cases 25860/25862 set against WPX cases 26049-26052; contested pooling over overlapping Eddy/Lea acreage; private top-tier Delaware driller, ~75% of program in New MexicoNew Mexico Oil Conservation Division hearing docket — June 23, 2026 (Mewbourne 25860, 25862 v. WPX 26049-26052), emnrd.nm.gov/ocd/hearing-info | NMOCD Announcements and Notifications | Modrall Sperling — New Mexico Upstream Oil and Gas Regulation overview, Jan 12, 2026
Reason to reach out
Mewbourne was on the NMOCD docket June 23 with compulsory pooling cases (25860, 25862) set against WPX — a contested pooling posture over overlapping Eddy/Lea acreage. That is exactly the matter where the application, the working-interest ownership, and the supporting title all have to line up before the division issues an order. At Mewbourne's New Mexico concentration that work is continuous, and a contested docket raises the stakes on getting it right. (Source: NMOCD hearing docket, June 23, 2026)

Brad — Mewbourne was on the NMOCD docket June 23, with compulsory pooling cases (25860 and 25862) heard against WPX. A contested pooling posture is where the application, the working-interest ownership behind it, and the title that supports it all have to line up before the division issues an order. At Mewbourne's New Mexico concentration — roughly 75% of the program in Eddy, Lea, Loving, and Reeves — that pooling and title work runs continuously, not in quarterly batches, and a contested docket raises the cost of getting any piece of it wrong. HELG handles NMOCD compulsory pooling and allocation well work directly, with the federal and state title that supports it, licensed in Texas and New Mexico and Board Certified in Oil, Gas, and Mineral Law. If outside bandwidth on the New Mexico pooling and title queue would help, worth a short conversation. — Ben Holliday, HELG · 210.469.3187

Mewbourne — contested NMOCD pooling docket June 23; continuous New Mexico pooling and title workload
Email body (swap [First Name] when sending)
Hi [First Name], Mewbourne was on the New Mexico Oil Conservation Division hearing docket June 23, with compulsory pooling cases (25860 and 25862) heard against WPX cases — a contested posture where two operators are seeking competing pooling orders over overlapping acreage. A contested docket is where the pieces have to line up: the pooling application itself, the working-interest ownership behind it, and the title that supports the application — because the other side is examining the same sections. At Mewbourne's New Mexico concentration, with roughly 75% of the program in Eddy, Lea, Loving, and Reeves Counties and more than 2,500 wells operated, that pooling and title work is a continuous requirement rather than a quarterly batch. More than 60% of Eddy County is federally owned, which puts a federal title workflow on top of the state work, and the broader New Mexico regulatory environment this period raises the cost of getting the filings wrong. HELG handles NMOCD compulsory pooling and allocation well applications directly, with the federal and state title that supports them, in Lea and Eddy Counties, New Mexico, and Loving and Reeves Counties, Texas. Board Certified in Oil, Gas, and Mineral Law, licensed in Texas and New Mexico. If it would be useful to discuss support for the New Mexico pooling and title queue, I am available this week.

LinkedIn post (broader pattern — no operator name)
A contested compulsory pooling docket is one of the clearer tests of whether an operator's land and title work is built to keep pace with its drilling. New Mexico ran a docket on June 23 with competing pooling cases over overlapping Eddy and Lea County acreage. Here is what a posture like that actually requires. The pooling application has to be right. The working-interest ownership behind it has to be confirmed. And the title that supports the application has to hold up, because the other side is looking at the same sections. None of that batches quarterly. At a Delaware Basin program concentrated in New Mexico, compulsory pooling, allocation well applications, and the federal and state title underneath them run continuously — and more than 60% of Eddy County is federal, which puts a federal title workflow on top of the state work. When two operators are in front of the division over the same ground, the filing that is better supported tends to be the one that holds.

Scott — Devon's exchange offers for the Coterra notes settled June 25, closing out the financing piece of the merger, and Clay Gaspar set the combined-company outlook at the J.P. Morgan conference June 23: roughly 1.38 million Boe/d, 500,000 barrels of oil per day, about $4.9 billion of capital weighted to the Permian, and $1.25 billion of debt retirement this year.

Devon/Coterra — note exchange settled June 25, combined outlook set at J.P. Morgan, federal title queue now operational
Email body (swap [First Name] when sending)
Hi [First Name], Devon's private exchange offers for the Coterra notes expired June 23 and settled June 25 — the financing overhang that was still open a week ago is now closed. At the J.P. Morgan Energy conference on June 23, CEO Clay Gaspar set the combined-company outlook: production near 1.38 million Boe/d including 500,000 barrels of oil per day, a capital plan of roughly $4.9 billion weighted to the Permian, $1.25 billion of debt retirement this year, and a target of $600 million in annual cost reductions by 2027. With the financing settled, the work is operational. The combined Delaware Basin position drives JOA re-execution and title rationalization where two acreage bases overlap, and the federal acreage component requires federal title opinions before BLM drilling permits issue. Federal examination is a distinct workflow from standard Permian title — it cannot be batched with state or private leasehold on the same program. We handle federal title opinions and NMOCD regulatory work in Lea and Eddy Counties. Board Certified in Oil, Gas, and Mineral Law, licensed in Texas and New Mexico. If a call to scope the federal title queue or integration curative would be useful while the work is at its peak, I am available this week. Ben Holliday Holliday Energy Law Group 210.469.3187

When a large merger clears its financing milestones, the headlines move on. The land department's calendar is just getting started. A combined Delaware Basin position means JOA re-execution where two operators' agreements now govern the same units, and title rationalization where two acreage bases overlap. On the federal component, a federal title opinion is required before the BLM issues a drilling permit — a different examination workflow from state or private leasehold, and one that does not batch with it. The note exchange settles. The investor outlook gets presented at the June conference. And underneath all of it, the title queue on the combined position is where the integration timeline actually gets tested. Financing is a deadline you can publish. Title is a deadline the drilling schedule sets for you.

Hi [First Name], At the J.P. Morgan Energy conference on June 23, EOG's COO Jeff Leitzel said the company will continue to be explorationist and signaled appetite for further legacy-style acquisitions, citing the Encino and Yates deals as the model. He also confirmed the Ohio Utica as a top-tier play — 16 wells across six pads in Harrison and Guernsey Counties on three rigs, with the Encino acreage now fully integrated — while the Permian is guided toward roughly 1.8 million Boe/d. The practical legal point is concurrency. EOG is standing up Ohio operating infrastructure — title examination framework, JOA standards, regulatory familiarity — from a lower base, while running two mature programs at full scale. The title, JOA, and curative workloads in the Delaware and Eagle Ford do not pause while the Ohio build proceeds, and the M&A signal means more integration title work may be coming on top of all of it. We handle title opinions, curative, and NMOCD regulatory work in Texas and New Mexico across EOG's Delaware Basin and Eagle Ford programs.

An operator that tells an investor conference it will 'continue to be explorationist' is also telling its land department something. More entries, more integrations, more title examination from a standing start in new geography. That is the position EOG described at the June 23 conference, and the Utica build is the live example — drilling across multiple pads in Harrison and Guernsey Counties while two mature programs run at full scale in the Delaware and Eagle Ford. Here is the part that shapes legal workload. A new operating area means building title framework, JOA standards, and regulatory familiarity that an established basin already has — and doing it without slowing the established basins down. When programs run across three plays at once, and the company is signaling more acquisitions on top, the title and curative workload in each does not wait for the others. It all comes due at once.

Reason to reach out
Diamondback took a $2B secondary block (Stephens heir, June 5) and rode the Iran/Hormuz oil-price whipsaw — above $120 mid-month, back below $70 by late June — but neither changes the title work in the queue. Q1 ran hot: 147 gross wells completed in the Midland Basin, plus an ongoing Endeavor integration. That drilled-to-completed flow is where title on completion-ready locations becomes the constraint, regardless of the weekly oil print. (Source: Bloomberg June 5, 2026; Q1 2026 earnings)

Kevin — June gave Diamondback two storylines that don't touch the title queue: a roughly $2 billion secondary block from the Stephens heir on June 5, and an oil-price whipsaw as the Iran and Hormuz disruption ran crude above $120 mid-month before it settled back below $70. Underneath both, the operating pace is what drives the legal work — 147 gross wells completed in the Midland Basin in Q1, with the Endeavor integration still folding a large acreage base into the program. Completing wells at that rate means a steady flow of locations needing title confirmed before completion and revenue recognition, and the integration adds title rationalization on top. That workflow runs regardless of the weekly price print. HELG handles title opinions and curative across the Permian, licensed in Texas and New Mexico, Board Certified in Oil, Gas, and Mineral Law.

Email body (swap [First Name] when sending)
Hi [First Name], June gave Diamondback two storylines that don't touch the title queue. The Stephens heir sold roughly $2 billion of stock on June 5, a large secondary block that reshapes the holder base without changing the program. And the Iran conflict and Strait of Hormuz disruption ran crude above $120 mid-month before a conditional reopening brought WTI back below $70 by late June. Underneath both, the operating pace drives the legal work. Q1 saw 147 gross wells completed in the Midland Basin, and the Endeavor integration continues to fold a large acreage base into the program. Completing wells at that rate means a continuous flow of locations moving from drilled to completed — and title on each has to be confirmed before completion proceeds and revenue is recognized. The integration adds title rationalization on top. None of that workflow moves with the weekly oil price.

LinkedIn post (broader pattern — no operator name)
A volatile month for oil prices is a useful reminder of which work is sensitive to the price tape and which is not. When crude runs from above $120 to below $70 in a few weeks, capital plans get stress-tested and ownership blocks change hands. The title work on already-drilled locations does not move with any of it. An operator completing well over a hundred wells a quarter in the Midland Basin has a continuous flow of locations going from drilled to completed, and each one needs title confirmed before completion proceeds and revenue is recognized. Fold in an active acquisition integration and you add title rationalization on top. That workflow is set by the drilling and completion schedule, not by the week's oil print. The price tape gets the attention. The completion-ready title queue runs underneath it, on its own clock.

Reason to reach out
Riley raised full-year production guidance after a Q1 beat (5% above the oil midpoint, June 2 report), carrying only a modest capex increase tied to higher activity. That higher activity runs largely through the Silverback Yeso Trend acreage in Eddy County, now in active development. The Yeso Trend and Northwest Shelf carry distinct NMOCD and title requirements from the Delaware — and a guidance raise on activity means that NM title workload builds with it.

Mark — Riley raised its full-year production guidance after Q1 oil came in about 5% above the midpoint, with capex and operating costs both better than expected and only a modest capex bump tied to higher activity. That higher activity runs largely through the Silverback acreage in the Yeso trend of Eddy County — more than 300 gross locations that expanded inventory by nearly 50%, now in active development. The Yeso Trend and Northwest Shelf have their own NMOCD filing requirements and a title examination workflow distinct from the Delaware Basin to the south — different formation history, different curative patterns. A guidance raise driven by activity means that New Mexico title and regulatory work builds with it.

Hi [First Name], Riley raised its full-year production guidance after Q1 2026 oil production came in about 5% above the guidance midpoint, with capex and lease operating expense both better than expected — the raise carried only a modest capex increase tied to higher development activity. That higher activity runs largely through the Silverback acreage in the Yeso trend of Eddy County, New Mexico — acquired in July 2025 for roughly $123 million, more than 300 gross undeveloped locations, inventory expanded by nearly 50% — now moving into active development. The geographic point shapes the legal work. The Yeso Trend and Northwest Shelf are distinct from the Delaware Basin to the south, with their own NMOCD filing requirements, formation history, and title examination workflow. A guidance raise driven by activity means that New Mexico title and regulatory workload builds with it.

Subject: Riley Permian — full-year guidance raised on Q1 beat; Northwest Shelf NM title workload distinct from the Delaware Hi [First Name], Riley raised its full-year production guidance after Q1 2026 oil production came in about 5% above the guidance midpoint, with capex and lease operating expense both better than expected — the raise carried only a modest capex increase tied to higher development activity. That higher activity runs largely through the Silverback acreage in the Yeso trend of Eddy County, New Mexico — acquired in July 2025 for roughly $123 million, more than 300 gross undeveloped locations, inventory expanded by nearly 50% — now moving into active development. The geographic point shapes the legal work. The Yeso Trend and Northwest Shelf are distinct from the Delaware Basin to the south, with their own NMOCD filing requirements, formation history, and title examination workflow. A guidance raise driven by activity means that New Mexico title and regulatory workload builds with it. HELG handles NMOCD regulatory filings, compulsory pooling, and title opinions across New Mexico, including the Northwest Shelf — not just the Delaware. Board Certified in Oil, Gas, and Mineral Law, licensed in Texas and New Mexico. If a conversation on the legal support structure for the New Mexico program would be useful as the Silverback acreage develops, I am available this week.

A full-year guidance raise driven by higher activity is good news for an operator and a quiet signal for its land department. More activity means more locations moving toward a permit, and more title and regulatory work behind each one. Where that matters most is geography. A guidance raise concentrated in the Yeso Trend and Northwest Shelf of New Mexico is not the same legal problem as one in the Delaware Basin to the south. The NMOCD filing requirements, the formation history, and the title examination workflow in that part of New Mexico differ materially from the Delaware plays that dominate most Permian legal conversations. New Mexico experience on the Northwest Shelf is a different thing from Delaware Basin experience — and when activity steps up, that distinction is exactly when it starts to matter.

$2B Delaware sale (Concho/Shell vintage) still under review — no buyer named, may not sell; June oil-price whipsaw (Iran/Hormuz) widens the bid-ask on any A&D process; federal Delaware position drives federal title work regardless of sale outcomeWorld Oil / Stocktwits — ConocoPhillips explores ~$2B Permian sale, deliberations early-stage, no buyer named (Feb 2026; no completion as of late June) | CNBC / Al Jazeera — oil prices, Iran and Strait of Hormuz, June 2026 | ConocoPhillips Form 10-Q Q1 2026 — SEC | BLM — federal ownership of Eddy County acreage
Reason to reach out
COP's ~$2B Delaware sale is still unresolved — no buyer named — and June's oil-price whipsaw (above $120, then below $70 on the Hormuz reopening) only widens the bid-ask on any A&D process, which is reason enough for a deliberate seller to wait. Whatever the outcome, COP keeps running the remaining Delaware position, and the federal acreage in it drives federal title work before BLM permits issue. The M&A is uncertain; the federal title work is not. (Source: World Oil; Q1 2026 10-Q; CNBC oil June 2026)

Mark — ConocoPhillips' roughly $2 billion Delaware Basin sale is still unresolved, with no buyer named, and June's oil-price swing — above $120 mid-month on the Iran and Hormuz disruption, then back below $70 as the strait reopened — only widens the bid-ask on any A&D process. That alone is a reason for a deliberate seller to take its time. The practical point is that whether or not the package sells, COP keeps running the remaining Delaware position, and the federal acreage there drives federal title examination — required before BLM permits issue, and a separate workflow from state or private leasehold. More than 60% of Eddy County is federally owned. HELG handles federal title opinions in the Delaware Basin, licensed in Texas and New Mexico.

ConocoPhillips — $2B Delaware sale still open; June price swing widens the bid-ask; federal title work runs regardless
Email body (swap [First Name] when sending)
Hi [First Name], ConocoPhillips' exploration of a roughly $2 billion Delaware Basin sale — the Concho and Shell vintage assets — remains unresolved as of late June, with no buyer named and the company free to decide not to sell. It is part of the $5 billion disposition target for year-end 2026. The fresh element this period is the macro backdrop. The Iran conflict and Strait of Hormuz disruption ran crude above $120 mid-June before a conditional reopening brought WTI back below $70 by late month. A swing that wide tends to widen the bid-ask on any A&D process — buyers and sellers price the same assets off very different forward curves — which is one reason a deliberate seller may take its time. The practical legal point is that whether or not the package sells, COP keeps running the remaining Delaware position, and the federal acreage in it drives federal title examination — required before BLM drilling permits issue, and a workflow distinct from state or private leasehold. More than 60% of Eddy County is federally owned. Q1 2026: 698 MBOED from the Delaware Basin alone. We handle Delaware Basin and federal title opinions and curative in Texas and New Mexico. Board Certified in Oil, Gas, and Mineral Law. If a conversation on the federal title workload would be useful, I am available this week. Ben Holliday Holliday Energy Law Group 210.469.3187

A wide swing in the oil price does something specific to the M&A market: it widens the bid-ask. When crude runs from above $120 to below $70 in a few weeks, a buyer and a seller looking at the same Delaware Basin package are pricing it off very different forward curves, and deals that looked close slow down. That is one reason a large, deliberate seller can sit on a process for months without it meaning anything. Here is the part that does not wait. Whatever happens with a sale, the operator keeps developing the acreage it holds. On a federal Delaware position, that means a federal title opinion before the BLM issues a drilling permit — a different examination workflow from state or private leasehold. The transaction is contingent on price and a buyer. The federal title work underneath the retained position is not contingent on either.

Reason to reach out
Crescent is running A&D in both directions — integrating the Vital Permian acreage while executing a ~$1B non-core divestiture program to bring net debt below 1.5x — with Q2 earnings (early August) the next integration read. Both directions generate title work: JOA and title rationalization on the absorbed acreage, and title and due-diligence support on the packages being sold. None of it runs on rig count; it runs on the land department's capacity. (Source: Crescent Vital close Dec 2025; divestiture program; Q2 2026 preview)

Robert — Crescent is running A&D in both directions right now: integrating the Vital Permian acreage from the December close, and executing a roughly $1 billion non-core divestiture program to bring its net-debt ratio below 1.5x, on top of the $900 million-plus already sold in 2025. Q2 earnings in early August will be the next read on the integration. Here is the legal workload underneath that, and it is two-directional: JOA and title rationalization on the newly absorbed Vital acreage, plus the title and due-diligence support that selling non-core packages requires. A divestiture needs title support just as much as an acquisition does. Neither runs on rig count — both run on the land department's capacity.

Crescent Energy — two-directional A&D title workload; Vital integration plus the non-core divestiture program
Email body (swap [First Name] when sending)
Hi [First Name], Crescent is running A&D in both directions. On one side, integrating the Vital Energy Permian acreage absorbed in the $3.1 billion all-stock close last December. On the other, a roughly $1 billion non-core divestiture program designed to bring its net-debt ratio below 1.5x, on top of the $900 million-plus already sold in 2025. Q2 2026 earnings, due in early August, will be the next full read on the integration. The legal workload runs on both ends and is not tied to rig count. On the integrate side, JOA and title rationalization on the newly absorbed Vital acreage. On the divestiture side, the title and due-diligence work that selling non-core packages requires — a buyer examines the title on everything you sell, and clean diligence on your side smooths the sale. Both run on the land department's capacity to process what the deals add and remove. We handle Eagle Ford and Permian title opinions, curative, and A&D due diligence, licensed in Texas, Board Certified in Oil, Gas, and Mineral Law. If a conversation on the legal support structure for the two-directional A&D program would be useful around Q2 earnings, I am available this week. Ben Holliday Holliday Energy Law Group 210.469.3187

Managing a balance sheet through A&D is a two-directional title problem, and that is easy to miss. The acquisition side gets the attention — JOA and title rationalization on the acreage you just absorbed. The divestiture side carries its own title load. A buyer is going to examine the title on every package you sell, and the cleaner your side of that diligence is, the smoother the sale and the better the price. So a company integrating a large acquisition while running a non-core divestiture program to bring net debt down is generating title and curative work on both ends at once — and none of it tracks rig count. It tracks the pace of the deals. The earnings call covers the debt-reduction target. The land department is what actually has to process the acreage going in and the acreage going out.

No headline acquisition this period; June oil-price whipsaw (Iran/Hormuz) cools the near-term A&D market for the Delaware's most active bolt-on acquirer; ~450K net acres, second-largest Permian pure-play; continuous ground-game title workload between named dealsPermian Resources Corp Form 10-Q Q1 2026 — SEC | Permian Resources Corp Form DEF 14A — SEC, April 2026 | CNBC / Al Jazeera — oil prices, Iran and Strait of Hormuz, June 2026 | Permian Resources company profile — ~450,000 net acres, second-largest Permian pure-play
Reason to reach out
No headline deal from Permian Resources this period, and June's oil-price whipsaw (above $120, then below $70 on the Hormuz reopening) helps explain why a deliberate bolt-on acquirer might pause — a wide price swing cools the A&D market. But the ground-game title workload doesn't pause: as the second-largest Permian pure-play (~450K net acres), each small package generates a title examination before drilling. A slower deal market is when an operator catches up on that work. (Source: PR Q1 2026 10-Q; CNBC oil June 2026)

A wide swing in the oil price cools the headline-deal market — and that is exactly when the quieter title work tends to catch up. For one of the Delaware Basin's most active bolt-on acquirers, the stretch between named transactions is not idle time. The ground game runs continuously: small acreage packages added on a rolling basis in Reeves, Culberson, Lea, and Eddy Counties, each generating a title examination requirement before a drilling permit can be filed, and curative on what the examination surfaces. That workload does not show up in a press release, and it does not stop when the M&A market pauses. If anything, a slower headline-deal environment is when a disciplined operator gets the title and JOA work underneath its existing position caught up — so that when the market turns active again, the legal workflow is keeping pace rather than catching up.
