How good’s your lawyer? How deep are your pockets?

How long can you live with a problem while you struggle to enforce the terms of your “good” lease? Yup, that one, the one with all the protections – protections that are only as good as your ability (read money) to enforce them.

The company gets to deduct its “production” (imagine what that term could encompass) and transportation costs from your royalty payments. You don’t get to recoup your legal costs on top of your royalties.

What will you have left when the fight’s over?

ExxonMobil, thanks for giving us another example of just how nasty the O&G industry is. We knew you had it in ya.

Judge, thanks for giving us yet more proof of how the system works, as if we needed any.

Big, big (sincere) thanks to these bloggers for their teamwork in getting her story out:
