RE: Ritchie Exploration agreement - Mendell hits the big time25 Mar 2026 09:13
They really are a big player… asked AI — Obviously no mcap as private. But can still see scale….
“ Ritchie Exploration, Inc. is a prominent oil and gas producer in Kansas, ranked #13 in the state by total barrel of oil equivalent (BOE) production as of January 1, 2025, with 24,532,852 BOE produced.
However, based on the available information, Ritchie Exploration, Inc. does not have a publicly available market capitalization. The company is classified as an independent producer and is not publicly traded. As such, it does not report market cap data like larger, publicly listed firms such as ExxonMobil or Chevron.
It operates in multiple states: Colorado, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, and North Dakota.
It has 374 producing wells and has been active since January 1980.
Estimated daily production: 1,288 barrels of oil and 1,501 MCF of gas.
The company is headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, with 11 employees. ”
This is all about growth and risk sharing. That’s where so many smallcaps mess up. You need to partner with experts. They will help you grow and ya never know may even buy you out at a true market valuation!
They could get to 15 wells in a blink and would be seriously interested in the dewatering tech as it would open up a whole field and some for them. Ritchie could deploy that tech rapidly.
So much more opportunity here than drying out one well!
Usual caveats
