Is it true that they can drill under your land and you will still not get paid anything?

I am curious if they drill under your land and by the time they deduct their costs you will not get anything or more than likley will get very little if they obtain the amount they need from surrounding areas and you have not been asked to sign a lease. This must be true as how would they know who to pay so likely as not you will get nothing and they will take the gas out from under you. It seems you have to sign a lease to get paid am I right?

Thanks for backing me up in this. I am very busy working 10 hours a day and have little time to go over the 5000 + discussions started. Again, thank you for your support in this.
