General Mineral Rights Discussion

What books would you recommend for mineral owners?

I’m looking for general introductory information on everything oil and gas related.

Thank you,

Oil and Gas Law in a Nutshell, 5th Edition (Nutshell Series) [Paperback] By John S. Lowe

Available on Amazon, probably available at Barnes and Noble too.

Hey Reagan -

There are any number of books out there available through public libraries and bookstores. And a search for such literature on the internet would likely locate several million sources for you.

But I would imagine that if you were to check with organizations like the National Association of Royalty Owners (NARO) (www.naro-us.org) or the Texas Land and Mineral Owners Association (TLMA) (http://www.tlma.org/ (or similar groups for your state), they will have recommended books and other literature for you to choose from - perhaps even seminars for you to attend.

Hope this helps -

These are two authors that I am aware of from people talking about oil in the Bakken fields

I’d recommend “Look Before You Lease,” from the National Association of Royalty Owners.

I’d check out your state’s Oil and Gas Conservation Commission’s Rules at their website and it’s free.
