"the unit I'm in which was around 750 acres, only two laterals.  I don't own a big acreage of that. The gross value of the well production added up to $39,203,499.16 for the initial 3 months even with oil (condensate) being low…"

In a Planned Unit - What should I do now?

So our property has finally been put into a proposed unit.  The hearing for the Withey NE and NW units are scheduled with the Ohio DNR in December.  Based on other units in the area, if the schedule is similar, royalty checks should start to come in within the next 12-18 months.  What should I being doing to prepare?  Are there steps that I can take to reduce our tax burden?  Also, I have heard many people on this site state that you should never sell your mineral interest.  However, I have…See More

Hi David,

Montage did bail on my lease. Looks like the gas and oil glut has the industry spooked.

Thanks David, I'll let you know if I hear from them or receive a check in January.

Hi David,

My annual with Eclipse, now Montage, is due up in January 2020. Have you heard anything about renewals? Are you still signed with them?

Thanks,

Brett

Hi David,

I just wanted to let you know that I too have signed with Eclipse and just received my second year bonus. My property is to the North/West of you just over the Oxford County line.Looks like if they ever run a lateral it will pass through both of our properties.
