If they want to keep the lease then they will pay the rentals, if not the lease dies, unless there is wording to the contrary within the lease. You need to contact a lawyer to tell you what the lease language says about rental payments.

I would ask for a rental form, be it $10,000 a year or whatever.

How common is it for the O&G to buy a house to bulldoze so they can keep the distances from the well site legal?

Yes, seeing how all the other land owners in the unit are benefiting as well off of your land the pad is sitting on. Why should your land be sacrificed but not theirs?

Interesting. That is a lot of money. Do you think that they will make a deal with you at that figure?

True, I spent some of my youth in the rural mid-west, and many of the farmers in the county made more of of the underground missile silo leases than they did growing wheat. I looked piece of business property in Bossier that was priced out of the market because the cell phone tower on it was generating almost a mil a year.
Yeah, I think I would Bulldoze 8 acres of rentals for a firm $10000 rental
per acre and 25% royalties. with a good long term contract. But they would have to run their own pipeline 1/4 to the nearest big pipeline.
Very unlikely-but I could live with that, and sleep guilt free. If the first royalty check from the Haynesville Play is true-I may give them the lease for a moonpie and a RC Cola+24% . LOL
