Other leases named Foster E

3 leases share this name in district 08. The Railroad Commission gives each gas well its own number and each oil lease another, so one unit often shows up as several of these.

Other Foster leases in Ector County

2 leases in Ector County in the same field or with the same operator carry the Foster name. Operators often name the leases on one family's land alike, with a letter or unit number after the name. Sharing a name proves no tie: your division order says which ones pay you.

Which Texas production tax rate applies?
The Texas Comptroller lists low producing leases for this lease, from Feb 1, 2016. Its file does not give the rate, so we compare your stub with the full 4.6%. That is for August 2026.
Source: Texas Comptroller, approved severance tax exemptions.
Check the tax on your stub
Who buys the oil and gas?
Oil: Bridger Transportation, LLC gathers it. Gas from oil wells: Dcp Operating Company, LP buys and gathers it. The buyer's price is what a royalty check is figured on.

See every buyer and past buyers
How many 1099s should an owner expect for 2025?
One company, OXY USA Inc., filed this lease's reports behind every 2025 check, so most owners get one form. The operator is not always the company that pays, so go by the name on the stubs.
