Number of wells per production unit.

Question. Does the amount of wells producing on a 640 acre production unit increase the amount of royalties paid out to a person who's land is in that particular unit? Scenario: I have 20 acres in a unit of 640 acres containing 20 wells on the whole unit. The wells are each producing at or above 5mill mcfs a day. Will I be paid a royalty from each producing well?

Every leased landowner in a unit will receive royalties on their pro-rata share of all the production in a unit. (20 acres in a 640 acre unit = 0.03125%). Your royalties will be the percent of the unit you are by the royalty you negotiated on your lease.

Tuscaloosa Trend Sits On Top Of Poorest Neighbourhood For Decades - Yet No Royalties Ever Paid To The Community -- Why??

In researching the decades-old Tuscaloosa Trend and the immense wealth it has generated for many, I find it deeply troubling that this resource-rich formation runs directly beneath one of the poorest communities in North Baton Rouge—near Southern University, Louisiana—yet neither the university ( that I am aware of)  nor local residents appear to have received any compensation for the minerals extracted from their land.

This area has suffered immense environmental degradation…
