AED GROUP. . .

With field offices in North Texas, West Texas, Central Texas, Colorado and the DFW Metroplex, AED Group is strategically positioned to acquire, develop and produce quality acreage effectively and efficiently.  Beginning as a servicing company, AED has quickly grown into a full development company of several different types of minerals and leasehold.  Continuing to service clients allows for the Land team to stay sharp and focused as well as allowing the development team the ability to focus on what they do best away from our client work; Privately acquiring and developing mineral assets. Whether it be buying producing or non-producing minerals or leasing tracts for drilling and operations, AED is the best choice when it comes to partnering with a company which understands the importance of efficiency, quality, and effective management on each project and will successfully complete each project with highly trained landmen utilizing their expertise and industry standard tools and practices. We achieve consistent growth and success through our ability to adapt to each specific project, focusing on ethical practices, strong leadership and meeting deadlines.
