Bench Lane 02 · Leasing & Curative

Field Lease Acquisition & Curative Landman Work.

Once the ownership report or drilling opinion lands on the desk, someone has to find the unleased mineral owners, sit at the kitchen table, and cure the requirements holding up spud or pay. Sign the bench with the counties where you buy leases and clear curative.

Re What separates a clean leasing and curative file

  1. Finding heirs and severed mineral owners. Probate indices, obituary archives, tax rolls, and courthouse skip-tracing to locate fractional mineral owners before a compulsory pooling or unitization hearing deadline.

  2. Oil, gas, and renewable lease packages. Explaining bonus, royalty, primary term, pooling and allocation clauses, or solar/wind surface option phases without overstepping into legal advice, then returning complete execution and payment packets.

  3. Title opinion curative clearance. Working systematically through Requirement 1 to Requirement N: drafting and obtaining corroborated affidavits of heirship, identity and marital history affidavits, releases of expired leases, and mortgage subordinations.

  4. Surface waivers and accommodation agreements. Securing surface waivers, pad-site agreements, and non-surface-occupancy riders so solar developers or drilling engineers can permit without mineral-surface conflict.

Tip for signing the sheet: Check both Lease acquisition and Curative if you handle both, and note if you carry an active notary commission in your home state.

Common curative & leasing assignments

Affidavits of Heirship (AOH)
Tracking family trees across intestate estates, interviewing two disinterested witnesses familiar with the decedent's marital and family history, and recording clean statutory affidavits.
Unit & Allocation Ratifications
Securing ratifications and pooling amendments from NPRI owners, older HBP lessors, and unleased cotenants ahead of horizontal multi-section wells.
Solar & Wind Surface Clearance
Obtaining mineral accommodation agreements, drill-site designations, and lienholder subordinations so project finance counsel can close construction debt.
