Rock Energy Resources (RCKE) is an independent gas and oil company based out of Houston, Texas. In the early 1980’s, many independent companies abandoned prospective wells in the United States and turned to international and offshore opportunities. Rock Energy is taking another look at these untapped resources and is focused on acquiring the domestic offset and existing wells that show potential.

Rock Energy has an established set of criteria when evaluating prospective wellsites. The team utilizes the most advanced 2D and 3D imaging, micromagnetics and other interpretive tools to help uncover opportunities. Typically, properties must pass a minimum ten-times-return payoff to even be considered for development. The company’s objective is to develop onshore oil and gas sites that will not only pay off, but will pay off well. This is where the company’s dynamic duo performs their magic in the field. One team member is a “wellsite evaluation guru”, while
