Are your wells in a federal drilling unit? If so, you are probably being held up by the BLM. They need to approve all the details before Chesapeake issues any division orders or releases any royalties from wells. Guess what - they are way behind in Converse County, Wyoming. They are working through the process drilling unit by drilling unit. No word on how long it will take, but last fall I was told it can take up to 2 1/2 years. More bad news - Wyoming takes out ad valorem taxes according to their schedule, and that is most likely before you ever receive any royalties.
