San Juan Basin Royalty Trust
Company Overview
History and Background
San Juan Basin Royalty Trust (SJT) was created in 1980. It holds an overriding royalty interest in oil and natural gas production from properties located in the San Juan Basin of New Mexico. The Trust's primary purpose is to distribute net proceeds from these royalties to its unit holders.
Core Business Areas
- Overriding Royalty Interest: SJT owns an overriding royalty interest in approximately 120,000 net producing acres of oil and natural gas properties in the San Juan Basin.
Leadership and Structure
The Trust is managed by u0938u093fu092eu094bu0928u093fu0938 u0938u094du091fu094bu0930u094du092e u090fu0902u0921 u092cu0930u094du0928u094du0938, LLC, as trustee. There is no operational management team in the traditional corporate sense; decisions primarily concern distribution of royalty income.
Top Products and Market Share
Key Offerings
- Natural Gas Royalty: SJT's primary income is derived from royalties on natural gas production. Market share is not directly applicable as SJT is a royalty trust, not an operating company. Competitors are other royalty trusts, and direct gas producers.
Market Dynamics
Industry Overview
The natural gas industry is influenced by factors such as supply and demand, price fluctuations, and regulatory changes. Royalty trusts are dependent on the production and pricing achieved by the underlying operators.
Positioning
SJT is a passive royalty trust, dependent on the production decisions and efficiency of the operator, Hilcorp Energy Company. Its competitive advantage lies in its established royalty interest in a productive basin.
Total Addressable Market (TAM)
The TAM would be the total revenue generated from gas and oil production in San Juan basin. SJT is positioned to receive a fixed royalty percentage of this TAM.

Competitors and Market Share
Key Competitors
Competitive Landscape
As a royalty trust, SJT does not directly compete with other energy companies in the traditional sense. Its performance is relative to other royalty trusts with differing asset bases and royalty structures. Direct gas producers compete for market share in gas sales.
Growth Trajectory and Initiatives
Historical Growth: SJT's growth is tied to the production profile of the San Juan Basin properties and natural gas prices.
Future Projections: Future performance is uncertain and dependent on factors outside of SJT's control.
Recent Initiatives: SJT itself does not undertake strategic initiatives; its performance hinges on the operator's activities.
Summary
San Juan Basin Royalty Trust is a passive investment vehicle highly dependent on natural gas prices and the production activities of Hilcorp Energy. It offers a variable income stream but carries significant risks associated with commodity price volatility and the depletion of its underlying assets. The Trust's future performance hinges on the sustained productivity of the San Juan Basin properties. Investors should consider the inherent risks and uncertainties before investing in SJT.
