Pipeline Right-of-Ways...

What's the going rate on pipeline right-of-ways?  Is it by running for for a particular width?  Is it by square footage?  Is it a one-time bonus money deal, or do you lease it to them?

There is not really a "going rate" on pipeline r-o-w's, unless eminent domain is involved. This "rate" is almost always negotiable, and a little homework will help. What are nearby owners being offered?  What is your land worth to you long term? Don't get in a hurry!

Usually the first offer is made on a $/rod basis(per 16.5' running foot). It is pretty easy to convert to an acreage figure. There is a permanent pipeline width plus the temporary work area width that must be factored in. If timber is involved, have a forester give you an estimate.

There is a one-time payment to you, but it is a servitude or easement, and you will continue to pay the property taxes.

Not one size fits all, hopefully, these hints will help. Good luck!
