No Royalties Paid Out for a Year

Our family has signed, the company has ran a pipeline across the property, improved the road, started drilling and installed two wells on the property.  We have received a little money for the pipeline and and road but no royalties yet and it has been a year.  Do we need a lawyer?

Robert Bell--- if two wells have been completed and they are both flowing from well site into a pipeline I suggest you call the operator of the well and request Division orders to be sent to you so payments of royalty can be paid each month. Check you lease -- most standard lease states they should pay you within 90 days of production. Also there a lot of prior discussions on site about royalties payments--- check search on this site for any topic you would like info on There probably already dicussion with treads replies you can read.

I am glad to know that someone is recieving payments. I signed a Division order in February, I have not recieved any payments at all. and when I call them , they put you on eternal hold. And as for the the lady that I am referred to who is suppose to be handling this, I have left numerous messages on her voice mail since last November, I have never recieved one return call from her. I think, the only persons making money from any on this are the ones who own the company.  It's funny you can see logos where they can sponsor everything and promote themselves but from reading the comments and hearing complaints from most people, it all seem to be just another way to be shafted again.

You'll need to be patient. You are not being shafted. The operator has hired a law firm to write a Division Order Title Opinion. Those take a while. If your payments don't begin within 90 days after the end of the month when first production occurs, unless there were title issues with your ownership, you will be entited to interest on the late payments. This has nothing to do with companies sponsoring events - that is a good thing. They are not the adversary, although XTO is one of the worst at answering royalty owner concerns. You will eventually be paid- I promise you they are working on it but most people don't appreciate what operators need to get accomplished before making distributions.

Robert, can you provide the Section-Township-Range?  The wells may not be producing from your unit.


landownerPermalink Reply by Robert Bell Jr on June 26, 2012 at 7:05

I believe this is what you are looking for CARTHAGE (HAYNESVILLE SHALE).

 

Production 1,379,609

Robert---what Les B needs from you is the number of section-township-range for example like    17 N 15 W section2 ----- The "Carthage Haynesville shale" is name of the Field the formation is in.
