Office of Mineral Resources
About the Office of Mineral Resources
The Office of Mineral Resources was established to manage the state’s mineral assets and to provide staff to advise the State Mineral and Energy Board in granting and administering leases on state-owned lands and water bottoms for the development and production of minerals, primarily oil and gas, for the purpose of optimizing revenue to the state from the royalties, bonuses and rentals generated therefrom.
The Office is headed by the Assistant Secretary, who also serves as the Secretary of the State Mineral and Energy Board.
The staff consists of professionals such as landmen, GIS personnel, geologists, engineers, accountants, auditors, attorneys and administrative employees who conduct the day-to-day operations of the Board's business and provide it with the information and technical advice necessary for the accomplishment of business at its monthly meetings.
