I received a lease offer, (in Yoakum County, TX), I think is too low. If I decline the offer and enough other people sign what happens if they go ahead and drill a producing well? Will I be left out? If not, what % royalty will I get?
Thank you.

There’s a lot things that can happen and depend on 1) type of well: vertical vs. horizontal 2) whether the well is on or crosses your property 3) is your property within a certain footage of the proposed well
If a well is drilled on or crosses your property then you would be a co-tenant to the well, and therefore receive your proportionate interest into all/allocated production after the payout of the well.
In cases where it doesn’t cross your property you wouldn’t receive revenues.
