What is surface rights in Texas?

MINERAL RIGHTS IN TEXAS. U.S. property owners have rights not only to the surface of their land and all structures, but also to everything that lies below the surface. This means that the property owner may control minerals, like gas and oil, that may exist below the surface.

What are surface royalties?

It involves the right to resources, minerals, oil and gas, and other things underneath the soil. A property owner with mineral rights may explore, extract, and sell natural deposits found underneath the land surface. But surface rights only refer to exclusive rights to all physical property on the land.

What is the difference between mineral rights and royalties?

Also, the mineral rights owners keep the right to lease bonuses, shut-in payments, and lease bonuses. As the royalty rights owner, you would get the right to a percentage of the royalties on oil and gas production from the property without bearing any of the operational cost of production.

What is a surface waiver in Texas?

Surface Waiver and Accommodation Agreements The broadest contractual limitation is a surface waiver agreement through which the owner of the mineral estate waives the right to use the surface of the land where the project is located. Mineral owners may not be inclined to sign such a broad limitation.

What are royalty rights to land?

A royalty interest carved or reserved from the mineral estate is an interest in land, but has no right of use and possession and no right to explore for or produce the mineral estate. Its sole right is to receive royalties once production is established, no more.
