New to forum. I have questions about royalty amounts in the future. I’ve been offered 5k per NMA. Not sure if this is a good $ or should I hold on to the lease. Out of 177 acres I have 14.5 NMA in 16 different tracts. Wondering what royalties to expect, if any.
Hi Jeb63 and welcome. I would say that 5k per NMA is very fair. As to RI I would ask for at least 18%. Of the many leases I have seen lately in your area, 18% is a good number. Only a very few at 19-20% were recorded and you don’t know what bonus was offered on those particular leases. Several at 15%. There is a lot of lease activity in the Cameron/Liberty district area. My leases are south of you in Liberty and they are producing well with new wells currently being drilled. Make sure you are covered in the lease from production costs, liability and no automatic lease extension among other items. Addendum examples are located on the Marshall County sector of the forum. Good luck.
