Hello,
I am part owner of mineral rights for a 100-acre tract.
I've been processing paper work with Landman "A" who represents Oil Co. "X" for about a year. We are now completing a stipulation of interest. Today, unsolicited, Landman "B" representing Oil Co. "Z" contacted me requesting similar forms, probate information and offered a stipulation of interest "to get payments" due to me.
Questions:
1. Is it good business for me to provide the information requested to two landmen representing two different oil companies?
2. If I must pick one scenario, what are the most important issues to address and understand?
Thank you.
