It would depend on how large an interest the "holdout" owns and how large the tract is, as to how the operator might handle the situation. As an NPRI, you can only wait for a resolution, I believe, but if the tract is in a "hot area"... sooner or later, they will work it out and a well will be drilled.

Corrections or additional comments welcome.

Thanks for replying -- I've been getting mixed messages from the landman. I'd like to know exactly where the property is located, which totals about 500 acres. The warranty deed is rather vague, and I don't live in the immediate area. What should I ask the landman for, if anything?
