I am in the process of negotiating a lease with Reef Petroleum on my mineral rights in Section 29 8N 3W, McClain County, Oklahoma. I am not the surface owner. Reef has a paragraph in their lease agreement that I have not seen before. I states:
This lease also covers accretions and any small strips or parcels of land now or hereafter owned by Lessor that are contiguous or adjacent to the above described lands. For the same consideration stated above, Lessor further grants, sells, conveys and warrants to Lessee a subsurface right-of-way and easement in, through and under the leased premises for the purpose of drilling oil and/or gas wells to, and producing through said wells oil, gas or other minerals, from, lands other than the leased premises, together with the right of ingress and egress to said wells.
What is Reef trying to accomplish? Is this language standard in Oklahoma Oil & Gas leases?
