Without reading all the posts, can someone give me a link or tell me where I can find the production for a well in Payne county. 09 17N 04E Robison. Thanks
Martha, I have been all over the OCC site and still cannot find any reports for the production of 09 17N 04E SE section. One owner has been paid a check, but AME keeps saying that 160 acre section is clouded. WELL, how can they pay someone in that section and not pay others? Plus, I see where Ron posted on June 9 an AME Woodford, Robison that was producing 283 barrels per day…WHERE did he find that information? thanks, joyce
Wondering if anyone has had any particular problem with companies deducting production costs from royalty payments. That seems to be a common practice that has caused problems for mineral owners (particularly in Pennsylvania with Chesapeake). We haven’t been drilled yet, and our lease contract has a clause stating no deductions for production costs can be made. However, I’m just curious if anyone has had any experiences in that regard in Payne Co. I’m trying to anticipate potential issues, if/when production happens.
Philip, Many wells in Payne produce gas at atmospheric pressure that comes out of the well as a liquid called ‘fuel gas’ and it is not processed. It can go straight to the gas processing plants where it is used to fuel the plants or cover gas. Are they paying you about $35 bbls for your fuel gas then charging processing fees for not processing your fuel gas?
Steve, All you need is your legal description. I found a better e-how http://www.ehow.com/how_7914091_search-mineral-rights-records.html
I assumed there were books in each county listing sec/tn/r where the transfer of title (sales) were recorded and one wouldn’t need to know the legal description of the surface. All of the past leases and deeds for sales in my files only mention ‘quarters’, sec/tn/r.
Phillip, I’m feeling chilled (like the NGL’s), wondering what the sum of all my low production amounts will be over the lifetime of all my wells.
Robson Devon Energy charged a processing fee only for the gas liquids, not on oil this contrary to our lease agreement. I talked with Devon and they are reviewing our lease and will credit any fee charged contrary to lease. We will see. Phil
Phillip, On our checks they are coding the ‘fuel gas’ as code 400 all plants products. All plant products are the natural gas liquids (NGL’s) propane, butane, ethane, isobutane, and pentanes that are separated from the gas while it is in the gas state. The thing is, fuel gas is already in the liquid state, because the abnormal pressures in our area are creating the energy that transforms the gas into a liquid in the earth, so it comes out as a liquid. Fuel gas is not processed at the plant, but they can use it at the plant as fuel for the plant or as ‘cover gas’ which is just a term for topping the tanks to keep the risk of explosion down, because fuel gas is not as volatile. They sell the fuel gas from location tanks for $100 and give mineral owners $35 and charge for processing too!
Martha, long story short, while looking for heirs to one mineral interest a landman in Sebastian Co. AR found my grandfather’s name on another coal interest and gave me book & page. I’m thinking of taking a short vacation to AR and making a search or finding someone to do it but the deed dates back to the 1920’s so it may be just a nice vacation. thanks for the info on title searches.
Oh, Martha, I have spent many hours at the Payne county court house and spent almost 200.00 on copies. Then, came back to office and paid to get copies on line. Obtained a few, then saw that it was shut down. So, the only way to get the production of the oil is joining thie web site you gave? The OCC shows several form reports, but I can’t seem to bring up any on our production. I do thank you for your info…
Martha, I have called the OCC and she talked me through the web sites and I FINALLY have what I needed to know about production…Just wanted you to know… THANKS, again…
Joyce, You need asubscription site like http://welldata.oil-law.com/ and you may need to run the records at Payne county court house. You physically have to go to the court house now, because Glenda, the court clerk, saw fit to take Payne county records off the internet. If you have the book and page, it’s not as hard as you think to run your own title record. You can follow it back as far as the records go, but may have ask one of the clerks where and how to access the old archived records. Otherwise, you need a landman and I run my records so don’t have one. Ask on open forum and maybe some other members know a good landman. http://www.ehow.com/how_6555778_do-mineral-title-searches-courthous…
Martha, read the article from your ehow link about title search - the author says to find the “plot number” in the county you want to search, is that sec/tn/range or something else? Thanks
Martha Devon codes the product 400 (all plant products (BBLS) and do pay around $35 Not sure what “all plant products” include but I will make it a point to ask. Probably the fuel gas to which you refered
Steve, In OK surface and minerals have same legal, so you’ll find surface mortgage deeds etc. on same page as mineral deeds and leases. It’s easier if you own surface and minerals, but if you don’t you need to find the separation of the minerals from the surface which most often is by a transfer(s). The record that transfers is usually indexed to the name of the person who owned the property at the time. I hope the record clerks are still giving out the little guide on search and indexing. If not, ask for their help and if they are to busy, hang around and share some really good chocolate candy with them until it isn’t and ask again.
Thanks Martha for the info not sure worth pursuing such low production amount. Doesn’t give one a warm fuzzy feeling for Devon does it?
New phone, sorry for the misspelling
Yes, the occ web imaging is where I wound up getting the monthly production. Is that where you mean, Martha? The tax comm gave me the PUN # and the Purchaser number. Then, the OCC 300R form pulled the monthly dates of production.
Marhtha, her is an interesting read http://www.propublica.org/article/unfair-share-how-oil-and-gas-dril…
