Mineral owner and rights to land access question

Ok, have a question for the experts here.State is OhioI am the land owner and minerals were sold completely by the prior owner. My question is - does the mineral owner have a legal right to enter property, establish drilling rigs, pipeline or storage WITHOUT my consent ?The prior owner of both land and minerals DID convey to a partial mineral owner these rights, in the mineral sales agreement. However - 2 things I can see is a problem with this:Only 60% of minerals were conveyed to this owner -…See More

"So got an update yesterday. Title is back and "in final review" Taking it to mean final review as in the purchaser final review....all that matters to me is the title review itself is completed. Thanks all for the help as always."

"Agreed.  The DMA in Ohio and the fact that the courthouses are empty, 60 should be plenty but it sounds like the language is unbound."

"Thanks, State is Ohio. I realize there is more to the search than a home purchase for example. Paperwork says "title review" from memory - so I would agree certified title. "

Would seem to be a…See More
