Oil, Gas and Mineral Leases

If you are a mineral rights owner who is contemplating a mineral lease, your friends and neighbors in your general area are your best resources for determining the going rate for royalty amounts and bonus monies offered. If you also own the surface real estate above the minerals, you will have additional decisions to make regarding whether you will permit a company to drill for oil and gas, build facilities and roads, lay pipelines, or construct water wells on your land. Our office has experience negotiating oil and gas leases, seismic agreements, surface and facility use agreements, and pipeline easements, as well as researching well data on the Railroad Commission of Texas’ online databases for mineral interest holders in Southeast and East Texas. Let our office review and explain the documents the Landman gives you first before signing on the dotted line.
