Understanding mineral rights in Texas is no small feat, even for the most experienced of land professionals. As we all know, Texas does things the way Texas wants, so it is no surprise that Texas Pooling rules and norms do not resemble those in other states, like Oklahoma.

Oseberg couldn't be more thrilled to be recognized as one of The Best Places to Work in Oklahoma by The Journal Record.

Oseberg Map Services

Oseberg recently launched Oseberg Map Services. Map Services makes it easier for both GIS professionals and everyday map users to bring Oseberg's leading land, lease, regulatory & drilling datasets directly into their preferred mapping environments, including ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Desktop/ArcMap or any other ESRI-compliant application. We have taken an '80/20' approach with Map Services, packing the most value with the minimum amount of attributes required while also drastically reducing the number of replicated datasets that need to be managed and tracked.
