Wolverine Gas & Oil Co IncOne Riverfront Plaza 55 Campau , NW , Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States

Wolverine is a privately owned, independent oil and gas exploration and production company based in Grand Rapids, Michigan.  Since 1948 and over three generations, the Jansma family has been successfully and responsibly developing oil and gas reserves to meet our nation’s energy needs.

A mission for success

 Wolverine will find and produce natural gas and oil efficiently, so that God is honored, our environment is protected, our employees are constructively challenged and well paid, and our owners and partners receive an excellent return on their investment.

• At Wolverine, oil and gas exploration is a science. Our experienced geologic and geophysical team is capable of researching and identifying land with rich oil and gas potential. Once this has been determined, our land staff utilizes available deed and tax information to identify landowners who would benefit from building a relationship with us.
• We believe business is personal. Our field representatives meet with the landowner face-to-face to gauge interest in leasing their mineral and/or surface rights. Whether providing useful information or answering questions, this is the first step in building a strong working relationship that’s as beneficial for the landowner as it is for Wolverine.
• Once the lease is signed, we verify title information and check to see if any additional work is needed to clear up the title. We then provide the landowner with an agreed-upon bonus payment, which is outlined in the lease.
• We leave nothing to chance. Before drilling begins, we meet with the surface owner to discuss timing and logistics. If we establish a producing well, the mineral rights owner receives a royalty payment according to the terms of the lease.
• During the term of a lease, there may be information or ownership changes that occur. The sale of the property, death of an owner, address/name changes, and estate planning are all instances that can require additional documentation be sent to us.
