Tom, I couldn't reply directly to your post so I'm doing it this way.

Original: "Intrepid, Just read your replies about county tax appraisals, etc. Good info/post, however my question is , if a person has no surface rights, and only holds an undivided interest in a few acres, would any county taxes be charged, once a successful well was drilled, and we started being paid our small royalties. I realize we will have state/fed. tax due, but what about Shelby Co., as our interest is only mineral, surface sold long ago (up near Campti). Thanks for any reply, will check back, Tom"

Reply: Tom, This is how I understand what I was told. I would not say this is absolutely correct but just my understanding. Once a well comes in and royalties are paid the well operator will furnish the tax appraiser with the deciminal interest of each lessor in the well and some information on the royalty payments being made on the well (s) in the lease. This iformation is evaluated by an outside company who specializes in valuing these properties for the county appraisal districts who will then put a value on each lessor's interest in the well(s). That is what you will be taxed on.

I also found this form which I have not inquired about.
Oil and Gas Property Rendition of Taxable Property
My link to the form did not work. It's on most CAD websites as it is also on the website at http://www.shelbycad.com/
Here is a copied portion of a tax statement on a well:
Entity Description Tax Rate Appraised Value Taxable Value Estimated Tax Tax Ceiling
0.000000 $49,110 $49,110 $0.00
GSH SHELBY COUNTY 0.396200 $49,110 $49,110 $0.00 $0.00
RDB ROAD AND BRIDGE 0.070300 $49,110 $49,110 $0.00 $0.00
SAX ISD 1.170000 $49,110 $49,110 $0.00 $0.00
Total Tax Rate: 1.636500
Taxes w/Current Exemptions: $0.00
Taxes w/o Exemptions: $804.
Here is something else interesting on property taxes on a well. I looked up one and saw that in 2006 the lessor's value was $39,800 in 2007 it was valued at $22,600 and for 2008 it's down to $13,600. Might be a clue as to how much the production drops in three years. I'm sure there are a lot of variables not considered.
