(AP) — The Bureau of Land Management netted more than $13 million from its quarterly sale of 48 oil and natural gas leases in New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas and Kansas. More than 30 bidders registered for Wednesday's auction in Santa Fe. Bids for two parcels in Texas brought in more than $9.4 million, while 38 parcels in New Mexico sold for more than $3.7 million. Seven Oklahoma parcels brought in $69,000, and a single parcel in Kansas brought in $160. The highest overall bid per parcel, $9.4 million, came from Narenta Oil Company of Santa Fe for 1,264 acres in Shelby County, Texas.
