Besides manufacturing pumping machines for oil & gas wells, Luther also had some of the first patents on natural gas regulators.
In addition to North Dakota and Montana, we own mineral rights in Saskatchewan. This large wall map in our office shows detailed permits from 1957
For Mercer County in 1960, Jim Luther and Ben Marcus created their own section maps to keep track of leases.
In 1951, we invested in North Dakota mineral rights and leases. Today, James H. Luther Royalty L.L.C., owns and manages thousands of acres of mineral rights and leases with oil companies. We welcome leasing inquiries.
