I have contacted some companies about purchasing my royalty interest in one specific well - not the minerals or subsequent wells.  What pitfalls should I be aware of?  Thanks.

Just be sure the deed is clear.

 

Make sure it refrences the well by name and serial # to avoid any confusion. specifically exclude any future wells, including any alternate unit wells. You may want to specify a term, maybe stating that all rights revert should the well ever be P&A. You never know the well could be rentered twenty years after the P&A.

 

Make sure that the amount of royalty is clear... if you don't understand it ask. If your interest is large enough to justify the cost, get a lawyer

Thanks TB.  Such helpful infor. Remind me what P&A is.  I'm still bargaining on a price.  They started at about 100% of the first years payout.

P&A is "Plugged and Abandoned."
