Payment cancelled by Shell

Has anyone else had this happen? The title to my property had no deficits (according to the Cambridge Office). I called Amegy bank today to see when the check would be sent and I was told that it was “cancelled per land department directive”.

I called Shell in Cambridge and they have no idea what is going on. Any thoughts?

We & our neighbors have been told by calls from Houston that we will be paid for our leases that were recorded last Oct. but it could be months,instead of weeks! we are planning on waiting,hoping that since Shell is a big dog, that when the time comes,they"ll send about 12 rigs in here at once, 6/8 wells per pad, build the cracker plant, buy out some of the smaller players wanting or needing to flip, Get them royalties flowing,and make it worth our wait. If not, there"s only gonna be 4 years left till they owe the bonus $$$ again!

Now here is a thought.  Why would the news papers print anything possibly/remotely detrimental to the county?  Look at the controlling interests of the Jeffersonian and see the promince of their board here in the county.  Last week's Jeff headlines read an estimated $400,000 in deed recordings in the first 3 months of the year.  Thats a pace of over 1million in 2012 alone.  If anyone could get a straight answer of dates or answers to phone calls emails etc, I think we would all feel a little better. Bout ready to give up and find a new company.

Litigation?
Does it make a difference if a memorandum of lease was actually recorded? Were they?

I think we need to get a large group of people and go into Holland together and see if we can get some answers then they cant avoid us. Maybe we should go speak with a local lawyer even to see what we can do I know Dave Bennett specializes in the oil and gas industry. I know I spoke with a guy from Texas that told me if I hadn't heard anything to call him back and he would personally check for me well when I did he told me sorry he don't know anything more and hung up
