Owner relations
How to reach Shell Western E&P as an owner
Not checked yet
We have not checked Shell Western E&P’s owner-relations desk yet. Here is how owners usually find it:
- Look at a recent check stub or statement. The phone number and address printed on it usually reach the owner relations department.
- Search the company’s own website for “owner relations” or “royalty owners”. Larger operators have a page and an online owner portal.
- The Railroad Commission file above has the company’s mailing address. A letter sent there reaches the company, though not always the right desk.
- Put your owner number and the property name or number on every letter and call.
