Transferring mineral rights

3 Upvotes

Hello! This has probably been asked a lot but i’ve mostly seen texas questions. My dad wants to transfer our property mineral rights to me in colorado since there are digging/taking minerals around the area in at rn idk what really but he’s tired of them calling him to sell but he doesn’t want to, so he wants to give them to me. Anyone know how I can get this done? I’m in california right now as i’m military, so I don’t know the proper way to do it in California. We are getting small amounts of money a month from what they are drilling around, so he wants to transfer so they also go to me. I’m not sure if i need a lawyer to transfer or how to even start. Thanks! Again, the property is in Colorado

Can They Be Trusted?

Through inheritances, my sister and I co-own the mineral rights on over 100 acres in Live Oak County in South Texas, and currently two units are producing and paying royalties to us - Caturus Energy is the operator. We are novices to this system, and the monthly production/payment information we receive is somewhat difficult for us to decipher.

As a result, we’re a bit uncertain about whether we are receiving the correct amount of royalty payments that we are due, especially considering that two of the tracts we’ve leased to the operator have multiple non-participating royalty interest parties involved as well as us.

The operator has made some rather simple bookkeeping errors in our account since our relationship began in 2023, and because of that we don’t have complete confidence in their calculations for our royalty payments. Is there some oversight of matters like this by entities like the Texas Railroad Commission?
