Access by Lessor
Overview of this form
The Access by Lessor form is a legal document that outlines the rights of a lessor to enter leased premises for the purpose of inspecting operations and gauging production from wells. This form provides lessors with the authority to access all producing wells and operational areas without prior notice to the lessee, differentiating it from typical lease agreements that might not specify such access rights. It ensures that lessors can effectively monitor the use of their leased property.
What’s included in this form
- Rights of lessor to access the derrick floor and other operational areas.
- Ability to inspect producing wells and storage tanks without prior notice.
- Provision for the lessor to install flow meters for measuring production.
- Indemnity clause protecting the lessee from claims arising from lessor's access.
- List of purposes for which the lessor may enter the lease premises.
Common use cases
This form should be used when a lessor needs to exercise their right to access leased property for inspection or to monitor production without having to notify the lessee. It is essential in situations where maintaining transparency and oversight over operations is crucial, such as in oil and gas leases or mining operations. If a lessee refuses access or if there are disputes about access rights, this form serves as a legal reference to support the lessor's position.

What is a Lessor? A lessor is essentially someone who grants a lease to someone else. As such, a lessor is the owner of an asset that is leased under an agreement to a lessee. The lessee makes a one-time payment or a series of periodic payments to the lessor in return for the use of the asset.
It is in fact illegal for a landlord or agent to enter the premises without permission from the tenant. Ultimately, a landlord has no right of entry unless the tenant grants access or the landlord is given permission by the courts.
If you disagree with the landlord/agent about reasonable access, apply to the Tribunal for an order to specify or limit the days and times on which they can show the premises. If you refuse access, the landlord/agent can apply to the Tribunal for an order that authorises them or any other person to enter the premises.
Yes, your tenant is within their rights to refuse you access to the property. In a lot of cases, tenants will refuse because the date and time isn't convenient for them and will suggest an alternative date or ask you to rearrange. However, some tenants will persistently try to obstruct you from entering the property.
Quiet enjoyment You are paying rent to the landlord for exclusive use as the property as your home and as such you have the right to decide who enters it and when. If a landlord enters your home without permission they are, technically, trespassing, unless they have a court order to allow them otherwise.
The lessor is bound to deliver the leased property to the lessee in good condition. The lessor is bound to reimburse the lessee for any necessary and reasonable expenses incurred by the latter for the preservation of the leased property.
