Finding Lost Mineral Income: 5 things you need to know
Whitepaper by Enverus

25 February 2021
In a crowded room of mineral owners, if someone mentions the word “underpayment” everyone is likely to turn to the only operator in the room. It’s easy to assume that oil & gas operating companies are the culprit when it comes to incorrect and non-payment on mineral interests, however, such situations are almost always an oversight and symptomatic of the business environment. The oil & gas industry is complex with labyrinthine ownership structures and cumbersome production accounting. Operators are obliged to not only manage the tough tasks of finding and extracting oil & gas, they must also manage payments and expectations of thousands of interest owners. Things fall through the cracks and with a few exceptional cases of misconduct, underpayments are a result of a complicated system stressed to the max. It’s important to note that most operators are also non-op interest owners, putting them in the same boat with oil & gas investors.
In this report, we’re going to take a deep dive into the top 5 underpayments oil & gas investors struggle with every day. What’s more, non-ops and operating companies alike can both benefit from the risk assessments and solutions offered in the following sections.
