Core offering

Brigham Minerals is a mineral acquisition company that purchases oil and gas mineral rights and royalty interests from landowners and mineral owners across U.S. producing basins. The company does not operate wells; instead, it acquires non-operated mineral and royalty assets that produce revenue streams tied to third-party upstream production.

Broad incumbents

• Franco-Nevada Corporation: Franco-Nevada is a leading diversified gold, oil & gas, and other natural resource royalty and streaming company with a much larger portfolio across commodities and geographies. Comparable as a broad incumbent in resource-based royalty/streaming capital allocation, but with mining and energy diversification well beyond Brigham's narrow oil & gas mineral-rights focus.
• Texas Pacific Land Corporation: Texas Pacific Land is a large diversified landowner and mineral-rights owner with a substantial oil, gas, and royalty portfolio across Texas. Operates with a longer-duration land-and-minerals model that is comparable to Brigham's mineral-rights thesis, but with materially larger scale and broader asset breadth.
• Wheaton Precious Metals: Wheaton Precious Metals is one of the largest precious-metals streaming companies globally, providing upfront financing to miners in exchange for future metal deliveries. Operates a structurally analogous streaming model to mineral-rights acquisition but in a different commodity vertical.
• Osisko Gold Royalties: Osisko Gold Royalties is a precious-metals royalty and streaming company with growing exposure to oil, gas, and renewable royalties. Operates a comparable buy-and-hold royalty/streaming model but is anchored in mining royalties rather than U.S. oil and gas minerals.

Emerging players

• Viper Energy: Viper Energy, a Diamondback Energy affiliate, acquires and owns oil and gas mineral and royalty interests concentrated in the Permian Basin. Overlaps with Brigham's mineral-rights acquisition strategy within a more narrowly focused geographic and operator-aligned mandate.

Direct peers

• Kimbell Royalty Partners: Kimbell Royalty Partners is a publicly-listed oil and gas mineral and royalty owner and acquirer. Competes directly with Brigham for producing mineral and royalty interests across U.S. onshore basins using a similar acquisition-led growth model.
• Black Stone Minerals: Black Stone Minerals is one of the largest owners of oil and gas mineral interests in the United States, with a long-running strategy of acquiring and developing mineral and royalty assets in competition with Brigham in overlapping producing basins.
• Dorchester Minerals: Dorchester Minerals is a publicly-traded oil and gas mineral and royalty partnership that acquires, owns, and manages mineral and royalty interests across the U.S., operating with a similar mineral-rights investment thesis to Brigham Minerals.
• Sitio Royalties: Sitio Royalties is a publicly-traded oil and gas mineral and royalty acquisition company, formed via the merger of Sitio Minerals and Brigham Minerals in 2024. Same core business of acquiring oil and gas mineral rights and serves identical lessor/operator counterparties.
• Enduro Resource Partners: Enduro Resource Partners is a privately-held oil and gas mineral and royalty acquisition and management company active in U.S. basins. A close functional peer with a similarly sized team focused on acquiring producing and non-producing mineral interests from operators and landowners.
