Profile
Receives a contractual share of net proceeds from oil and natural gas properties in New Mexico’s San Juan Basin, then distributes cash remaining after Trust expenses and reserves. The fixed-asset grantor trust cannot operate the properties or acquire replacements.
Converts a contractual royalty interest in oil and natural gas properties in northwestern New Mexico’s San Juan Basin into cash distributions for unit holders. The Trust itself neither explores for, produces, nor sells gas, oil, or condensate; Hilcorp operates most underlying properties.
Royalty income reflects the operator’s production proceeds after drilling, operating, processing, tax, and capital costs. Argent Trust Company pays Trust expenses and adds any necessary reserves before distributing a positive balance monthly.
The indenture bars business operations and new asset acquisitions, leaving a fixed, depleting asset base in one basin. Hilcorp controls development, production marketing, and most underlying data, while excess production costs must be recovered before royalty income resumes.
