I (a mineral owner) received letter from operator (in Texas) saying they are applying “for Exception to Statewide Rule 26 and/or Commingle Permit” for some wells on my lease. Letter said “effected parties have 21 days from the date of notice to file objection with the Railroad Commission of Texas”.
Can someone explain what commingling is?
What are pros and cons for the mineral owner of agreeing to commingling?
What are pros and cons of commingling for the operator?
How to determine (as a mineral owner) if this is good for me …… or whether I should file an objection to this. If I should file an objection is that process complicated and would I need to get an attorney involved?
