Understanding this form

The Preferential Right to Purchase Production form is a legal document that allows an assignor to retain the right to purchase liquid hydrocarbons (oil and gas) produced by an assignee. This form differs from other purchase agreements as it specifically outlines the assignor's right to either buy the production or designate a purchaser. The preferences established in this form help protect the assignor's interests in the production from the associated land leases.

Main sections of this form

  • Clause for the assignor's right to purchase oil and other hydrocarbons.
  • Written notice requirements for the assignor to exercise purchase rights.
  • Pricing terms based on current market conditions.
  • Procedures for gas purchase options and communication between parties.
  • Details on timelines for exercising preferential rights.
