Owners of subsurface rights can receive royalty, lease, and shut-in payments. Commonly applied in the oil and gas industry, shut-in payments are royalties paid by the oil and gas company to the lessor to maintain a lease on currently unproductive mineral assets.
One quick and dirty approach is the ?rule of thumb.? Those following the rule of thumb say that mineral rights are worth a multiple of three to five times the yearly income produced. For example, a mineral right that produces $1,000 a year in royalties would be worth between $3,000 and $5,000 under the rule of thumb.
The primary term on average is 3 years. Companies can add a 2-year extension if they wish. The company that executed the lease uses this time period to achieve drilling the well. Once that is completed, the secondary term begins and lasts for as long as the well is producing.
in clause (or shutin royalty clause) traditionally allows the lessee to maintain the lease by making shutin payments on a well capable of producing oil or gas in paying quantities where the oil or gas cannot be marketed, whether due to a lack of pipeline connection or otherwise.
Typically, mineral rights are associated with rural agricultural land. Agricultural land is not appraised at market value in Kansas. Thus, unsevered subsurface mineral rights are not assessed or taxed.
Mineral rights can be divided by specific mineral commodities. For example, one company can own the mineral rights to coal, while another company owns the oil and gas rights. Consequently, it is important to know which minerals are included in a mineral deed. Some deeds specify that ?all minerals? are included.
In Kansas, the landowner usually owns the subsurface rights, but sometimes these rights have been severed, or separated from the surface ownership. Severance of mineral rights occurs when the owner of both the surface and mineral rights sells or grants by deed the mineral rights underlying their property.
Royalty Payment Clauses A royalty is agreed upon as a percentage of the lease, minus what was reasonably used in the lessee's production costs. This is stipulated in a Royalty Clause. The royalty is paid by the lessee to the owner of the mineral rights, the lessor in the lease.
