Acquisitions

Data Acquisition & Management

Texhoma Land Consultants has been tracking and reporting our client’s leasehold position in various shale plays for over 20 years. Our systems and processes have been tested tough and now provide our clients with a real-time accounting of their holdings, fully reconciled and processed and with virtually any type of additional information or report that they need. To meet one of our client’s needs, we supply a report to them that is used in their SEC filings. The tracking and reporting of leases bought is a thankless, but necessary, part of lease buying and acquisitions. Let our experienced team take over this task for you.
