gas gathering pipeline in field--Is a written ROW required? Question for the experts

operator must put a pipeline in field to collect gas from well and transport it to market usually connecting to a larger line somewhere down stream.Even if your lease states they can put pipeline across property from well I assume damages will be required same as damage paid for pad site to drill. Is pipeline agreement handled differently with land surface owner who has no minerals vs landowner who leased minerals since minerals and surface are separative property. Are ROW agreements the norm? Any legal different since no 3rd party gas is been transported in this line? Someone stated since no 3rd party used line it was not a "pipeline" by definition.

It all depend on your lease. Some leases allow pipelines for a well on your land, some have set low paid amounts for P/l from a well if on your land or you get a royalty from the well the pipeline services.
Some leases don't say anything about pipelines, so that is all negotiated with P/L ROW agreements.
If you get to do ROW agreements it is all negotiated.
You are asking many of the right questions.
You can do very good on ROW's, especially if they want to put a trunkline if that the 6" well pad pipelines flow into. Jack Blake is not an expert though.
