Question I have leased my mineral rights to an oil company that in turn leased it to another company that drilled a gas well that just recently came in as a good well..it is located in Southwest Louisiana...Calcasieu Parish Louisiana....I know nothing !! What does a good well mean and what can I expect?
Answer You can expect a royalty check as soon as they get the well lined up to produce into the sales pipeline; also, you can find out more about the well and the wells in your area at the public information website below.
