About 8/day/acre/well is what we're getting; but remember, even if it doesn't decline initially, it will eventually.   This is probably one of the top 20 wells in NE Pa, but it's holding a lot of ground ...580 acres

This might sound like a dumb question, but when the well is holding 580 acres, do the royalties get divided over the entire 580 acres or just what the well is under?  Meaning when they come back and drill future wells will the royalty for all go up again?

The entire acreage. If the unit is 580 then royalties are distributed to all landowners with acres in the unit based upon proportionate share of land within unit.

Yes this holds true for all future wells. 

Once you are in a unit it does not matter if the lateral (well) is underneath your property or not.

If you had 20 acres included in the 580 then you would receive royalty on your 20.
