The average amount is probably around $2500/acre for the upfront sign on bonus offered by the energy companies in that area, BUT that doesn't mean that's what you'll get.  I know someone who recently just got $6500 per acre in Wetzel county and 19.75% for royalties on the gross amount (without expenses being taken out) after negotiating. They were offering $4000 per acre and they countered at $7500 and got $6500. It does depend on where your mineral rights are located also and if they really want to start pumping in the near future.  If they do or are already in the process of putting in wells, they will pay more.
