[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 3723265, member: 3099"] I don't think anyone has slant drilled into another parcel to steal O&G in probably over 100 years or so. Down hole survey has been pretty good for a long time now. The Corporation Commission rides herd on all of that and they don't mess around with it. When you go before the commission you have to have your ducks in a row. They even have their own judges! I'd go do something else before I did that and those landmen that do it for a living have my condolences. lol What likely happened is the wells around you probably drained the pool of which you were just over a part of. Like draining a swimming pool, if you own one end and the drain is in the other end and that owner pulls the plug, your water is gone too. They have rules for spacing, well density and production allowables and they are supposed to help mineral owners like you guys, but you can't legislate or regulate physics. It still happens.
