Was contacted by Bearcat Land wanting to know if I was interested in leasing my minerals in Caddo County. The tract location is Section 18-10N-10W, they are sending me an email later today with their info and lease offer. Their offer is $1200 an acre for three years @ 3/16th or $800 for 1/5th. There was mention of a 2 year option also.

So my question is are there any new drilling going on in Section 18?

Welcome to the forum.

Quite a few companies are leasing in that section, so you may get more than one offer. Very likely to be horizontal drilling there. Bearcat frequently leases for Continental Resources. I always ask for the highest royalty that they are offering and I never go for an option to extend.

If you have not leased before, it is wise to get a good oil and gas attorney to review any draft lease as they are not in the mineral owner’s favor and need significant edits. The lease can hold your acreage for decades. You can either lease or wait for forced pooling which has its own advantages.

Thanks, I live in Texas and have signed leases here for gas rights. One oil company drilled a shallow well on one part of a 640 tract and now that lease is tied up till that gas well stops producing. They did that because no one would buy the lease from him after getting it under lease, seems he was trying to make money off the lease without doing anything. But anyway, any suggestions for finding an oil/gas attorney in Oklahoma City to review the draft and offer suggestions for a nominal charge?

I only see a plugged oil well in 18-10N-10W. Last production in 1984-Conoco Phillips, so not a little guy. Are we talking about the same section? You said gas. You are free to lease in 18-10N-10W if that is where you are located.

You can look up OK attorneys on the OK bar association website and look for oil and gas specialists. May take a few phone calls to get one without a conflict of interest.

So the gas I mentioned is my land here in Texas. Bearcat is representing Continental Resources who wants to lease the 3.375 acres of minerals I own in Caddo County, Section 18-10N-10W. I assume they are going to horizontal drill for gas but I don’t know that for sure. My grandfather had these leases back in the 40s. He and my Uncle Harry Diamond were both wildcatters back in the day. I have contacted one law firm to see if they could help. My uncle’s kids are attorneys; need to see if one of them is an oil/gas attorney, that would be a big help, lol.

That explains the gas part. It was a bit confusing.

Likely to be oil and gas in Caddo. Depends upon the depth.

No leases filed in that section yet, but others in the township have 1/5th leases. I always ask for the 1/5th and 1/4 offers.
