[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2597511, member: 5412"] We have 80 acres on our gun club, and I manage the oil company's that have mineral rights to our place. Its a hot bed as we speak with two drilling sites, access roads, utility easements, and multiple pipelines both above and below ground. Okie 4570 hit the nail on the head. Hire an attorney that is familiar with oil company land business. We found out we were being low balled on the first offer for a drilling site. Actually tripled the price in the end. Even though they say, "this is what your neighbor got" it may actually be, but they did not hire an Attorney. Since its our range, we were concerned with possible spills, traffic, road construction, road construction materials, utility's, and traffic. Our range is private by membership. Gates have to be locked, etc. Should the roads, not be properly maintained, gates not locked, etc, the oil company can loose their rights for access. All of that being said, when we did hit them with the Attorney's contract, they signed it with no objections. When they built the access road, we had them run it along the pistol bays, along with the electric utitility poles. Reason for that was we now have a new access road to our bays and the potential to have electricity on our shooting areas, at their expense. Worked out good for both party's. Bottom line: Hire an attorney, to protect your property. 99.9% of oil company's are good to go. You don't want to meet that .1% [/QUOTE]
