Stay ahead in the oil and gas industry with a strategic approach to land management. From leasing and title curative to mapping software, successful operations depend on efficient, data-driven decisions.

With increasing scrutiny and competition for prime acreage, having the right land strategies in place is crucial for maximizing asset value and minimizing risks.

UNDERSTANDING OIL & GAS LAND MANAGEMENT

Oil and gas land services encompass the acquisition, research, development, and oversight of land assets critical for oil and gas production. Whether securing mineral rights, managing lease agreements, or effective land services ensures operational efficiency.

SURFACE & MINERAL RIGHTS OWNERSHIP

Land ownership in the oil and gas industry is complex, involving both surface rights and mineral rights. Our team of experts can help your business secure the proper rights to kick off and manage your projects including:

●      Surface rights grant ownership of the land itself but not necessarily the resources beneath it.

●      Mineral rights allow entities to extract and profit from underground resources like oil and gas.

TITLE CURATIVE: ENSURING CLEAR OWNERSHIP

Before drilling can begin, companies must confirm clear ownership, which PLM can help secure through due diligence processes such as:

●      Title Research & Abstracting – Reviewing historical records to verify ownership.

●      Heirship & Curative – Updating non-documented family heirship to confirm ownership

●      Title Defect Resolution / Curative – Curing title, satisfying title defects, and coordinating with relevant parties.

GIS MAPPING & LAND DATA VISUALIZATION

●      Lease Boundary Overlays – Clear visualization of existing and prospective lease assets.

Oil & Gas FAQs

  • Oil and gas land services involves overseeing lease agreements, mineral rights, title curative, due diligence, and many other detailed tasks.

  • Surface rights allow ownership of the land itself, while mineral rights grant ownership of subsurface resources like oil and gas. These rights can be separately owned, requiring legal agreements for drilling access.

  • Title curative resolves ownership discrepancies, ensuring that operators have clear legal rights before drilling. Without proper title research, disputes and delays can arise.

  • Our contract negotiation experts ensure favorable terms while navigating the complexities of land use agreements with transparency and expertise.

  • Ongoing asset management helps maintain network performance and extend life cycles—ensuring operational continuity.
