Survey Platt

Jed, there is a unit survey for HA RA SUM but not for HA RA SU67 in SONRIS.  67 has no prior HA production so there is no requirement for Comstock to submit a survey.  Hopefully Comstock will once the well is in production.  The requirement for submitting a unit survey is 90 days after first reported production.  The state isn't strict on that and operators are usually in no hurry.  Below are links to the survey for SUM and to the permit for SU67.  If you scroll to the last page of the permit the well plat does include some ownership interest for SU67.  Comstock will turn out a Division Order for SU67 that will determine the NRI.  There are a few missing surveys for producing units but not many.  I took me the better part of 2018 to get the state to enforce the submission of unit surveys for Haynesville Shale units.

I often want to get mineral owners organized enough to find a local legislator who will propose a couple of bills for the legislature to consider.  When a Division Order is sent, there should be a requirement for a copy of the unit survey to accompany it.  That way all unit interests can check to see if their eight digit payment decimal is accurate.  For unleased owners in an HA unit, there should be a requirement for them to receive a copy of the survey and  the operator should be required to send quarterly production statements without having to hire an attorney to make a legal demand.  These are common sense requirements that protect mineral owners in producing units.  Maybe one day HA mineral owners will get off their duff and demand that the state require operators to treat them fairly.

  Thanks Skip.  We are looking for HA RA SUM 14-12N-16W.  The link in your response shows HA RA SUM to be for 23-11N-15W property as best I can tell.   Did you find acreage ownership on the SU67 page?

  Great thoughts on DO's!
