An Overview Of Current Louisiana Law Regarding Implied Lease Obligations, Leland G. Horton Apr 2007

An Overview Of Current Louisiana Law Regarding Implied Lease Obligations, Leland G. Horton

Annual Institute on Mineral Law

This paper explores how mineral lessees in Louisiana may use the physical, futures and financial markets for natural gas, as well as gathering issues that arise before the point of sale. Mr. Leland Horton's portion of this presentation puts those issues in the context of the statutory and jurisprudential authority governing the relationship between mineral lessor and lessee. We may raise more questions than answers and we advocate more of a case by case analysis than a bright line rule. But we believe that this is a fertile area of the law that deserves discussion and debate.

Correlative Rights Of Surface And Mineral Owners, Thomas A. Harrell Apr 2007

Correlative Rights Of Surface And Mineral Owners, Thomas A. Harrell

Annual Institute on Mineral Law

The term "correlative rights" is commonly applied to two related but somewhat different situations that arise from or are incidental to the exploration and production of oil and gas. First, it refers to the rights and obligations of landowners (and those holding from them) to each other arising out of the exploration and production from a common reservoir that underlies their respective tracts and to their other activities related to the use and enjoyment of adjacent tracts of land. Second, it may refer to the rights and obligations with respect to each other of persons holding separate rights to the …


A Review Of Selected Lease Clauses, Aimee Williams Hebert Apr 2007

A Review Of Selected Lease Clauses, Aimee Williams Hebert

Annual Institute on Mineral Law

The mineral lease is quite possibly the most frequently used contract in any mineral producing jurisdiction. There are innumerable forms currently in use including both standard and custom drafted lease forms. Within the myriad of lease forms certain "standard clauses" have emerged, such as the habendem clause, royalty clause, Pugh clause, and Mother Hubbard clause, but even these standard clauses vary widely. No specific meaning may be given to any clause without an examination of its particular terms and provisions. And, as with any contract, careful drafting is necessary in light of the issues that have been raised by the …
