Texas Pacific Land Corporation (NYSE: TPL) May 2024 Produced Water Desalination and Beneficial Reuse Exhibit 99.3
TPL Innovation – Produced Water Desalination and Beneficial Reuse Leveraging our expertise, asset base, and technology to provide essential produced water solutions 2 Texas Pacific Land Corporation (“TPL”), within its wholly-owned subsidiary Transmissive Water Services (“Transmissive”), has developed a promising new energy efficient method of produced water desalination via fractional freezing and beneficial reuse process advancements Long-term, sustainable produced water solution Reduces produced water subsurface injection Beneficial reuse applications Potential high-margin cash flow stream underpinned by capital-light model Top-tier technology and research partners Interest from blue-chip upstream operators Multiple exclusive-use rights and process patents
Produced Water Overview 3 Produced water is natural saltwater that is a co-product from an oil and gas well Contains oil, suspended solids, and heavy metals Salinity of produced water is often 3-4X as salty as ocean water Due to its quality, produced water without desalination has limited uses outside of the oil and gas industry Produced water is typically either injected subsurface into saltwater disposal wells (“SWDs”) or lightly-treated / recycled for reuse in oil and gas completion activities Produced water is injected into deep zones, confined below the oil producing areas, or shallow zones, above the oil producing areas but below fresh and brackish aquifers – Due to the large volumes requiring injection, both the shallow and deep zones show concern for long term viability
Produced Water from Permian to Continue Growing Clean and sustainable alternatives to traditional produced water disposal are needed at scale 4 Permian Produced Water Volumes (mmbbl/d) Delaware Basin Well CompletionsWater-to-Oil (“WOR”) Ratio by Oil Basin1 Robust oil and gas development activity in the Permian Basin overall, and Delaware specifically, requires increasing demand for produced water solutions Strong Permian development activity and high water-cuts continue to drive higher Permian produced water volumes The Delaware basin has relatively high water cuts compared to other major oil producing basins 3.8 2.4 1.4 1.2 0.6 Delaware Midland Eagle Ford Bakken DJ Source: Enverus.

Produced Water Desalination Technology Overview 5 TPL has developed desalination technology that leverages the differing water freeze points across salinity levels Close collaboration with top-tier technology partner in the industrial freezing industry Fractional freezing more energy efficient than alternative desalination techniques Continue to make equipment and process optimizations Successful R&D trial at TPL facility in Midland; procuring equipment for a larger test facility with capacity of ~10,000 barrels of water per day 75% volume reclamation 75% analyte removal $0.75 per barrel treatment cost 25% 75% Analyte Removal Target 753 Matrix SVOCs & VOCs – almost all reduced to the TCEQ Maximum Contaminant Level PFAS levels meets current EPA recommendation Radionuclides reduced by 99.6% Metals reduced by 95.9% Plant and soil data have shown minimal changes to soil and no obvious signs of damage to plant health Working with academia to include analytes that are not traditionally analyzed Water Quality Results Desalination becomes economically competitive and environmentally superior to subsurface injection
TPL Advancing Beneficial Reuse R&D 6 Greenhouse Pilot Outdoor Alfalfa Plot Data Analysis and Plant Toxicology Pecos River discharge Greenhouse pilot tested various soil, plant, and water quality conditions and was used to design the RRC Pilot study Transmissive has applied to discharge high quality desalinated produced water into the Pecos River, a waterbody currently impaired by Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and lack of flow Conducting and participating in cutting edge produced water analysis and plant toxicology to the understand application of water outside of oil & gas Applying findings from Greenhouse Pilot towards outdoor study of utilizing desalinated produced water for crops
Striving for Sustainability Beyond Current Regulatory Environmental Standards 7 Texas Railroad Commission (“RRC”) granted TPL a pilot permit to irrigate a small alfalfa field near TPL’s Midland Yard Water standards meet requirements of this permit, and TPL has implemented testing procedures in compliance with guidance Applied for Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“TPDES”) permit through Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (“TCEQ”) to discharge treated desalinated produced water into the upper region of the Pecos River TPL’s TPDES application has been deemed administratively complete by TCEQ Technical Review underway TPL has extensive groundwater quality data for Loving and Reeves Counties Treated water from desalination tested of significantly higher quality than local groundwater in Loving and Reeves Access to best-in-class testing and analytical capabilities through several partnerships with research facilities Endeavoring to test, measure, and achieve quality metrics beyond scope of regulatory standards
Key Milestones Accomplished and Accelerating Further Commercial Development 8 Proof of concept: freeze desalination works and pathway to affordable cost Collaborating with a top-tier technology and manufacturing partner in the industrial refrigeration and freezing industry Secured exclusive use-rights for equipment towards produced water applications Filed a process patent utilizing fractional freeze desalination to treat produced water and surface discharge 1H 2024 2H 2024 Completion of water characterization Regulatory due diligence and filings continue PROGRESS TO-DATE Treated water product has been safe for irrigation thus far and meets most quality requirements for various methods of discharge Granted Land Application Pilot Permit by RRC to grow alfalfa from treated water Research partnership with New Mexico State University to analyze water quality Regulatory application for environmental discharge deemed administratively complete and currently undergoing technical review PRELIMINARY FUTURE DEVELOPMENT TIMING Execution of commercial arrangement 2025 Equipment procurement of 100k bbl/d facility (Phase 3) Execution of additional commercial arrangements Equipment procurement of 10k bbl/d desalination facility (Phase 2) 2026+ Complete construction of Phase 2 facility Advance with full scale commercial operations throughout the Permian
