We signed a Gas lease this past Aug 2020, on 42 + acres in Greene county, Richhill Twp, PA.
Marcellas Shale.
I periodically check the County deed records for activity on deed transfers and O&G lease documents. Today I found a new one. A declaration of pooling.
There are 8 of us on 42.75 acres. I have just located the documents with the pooling list. There are 158 names with about 28 parcels totaling 818.793 acres.
My question is about some some of the information on the docs filed. There are columns with Tract/Agreement no./Grantor/Lessor/Township etc.
Almost all of the names listed have Agreement No. listed.
4 of the participants of the 42.75 acres do not have an agreement no. listed, but TBD beside the names. Is this because we had negotiated a different lease agreement apart from the others?
We have a GROSS lease, where as the others do not, as far as I’m aware. Did everyone with a Agreement number sign a lease? What portion do the non signing group get?
I believe at this point we are awaiting a Division Order? This would lay out our percentages? We received the royalty check last month. Over half dozen offers to buy the minerals outright. The Unit now has a title: RHL31HS North C Unit. Now I have found a pooling notice. So I can assume things are moving right along.
How do I locate the property with the actual Unit on it? Or locate the actual permit on record for the pad? I’m hoping and assuming a permit has been acquired, so I would like to locate a copy for my records.
Thanks!
