The ringed dot is this lease's well, where the Railroad Commission's map puts it. The other dots are wells and drilling permits of the last 24 months on the land around it; the counts are for everything in the picture, which is about 6 miles across. The thin brown lines are the original land surveys; where there is room, a survey carries its abstract number, the number deeds and division orders cite.

What owners ask about Grinstead

When is the check for September 2024 due?
September 2024 is the newest month the state has posted for this lease. Texas law gives the payor until 60 days after the end of the sale month for oil and 90 for gas: the gas by Dec 29, 2024, unless the lease sets another time.
Source: Railroad Commission production reports; Texas Natural Resources Code §91.402.

Which Texas production tax rate applies?
The Texas Comptroller lists no approved exemption or reduced rate for this lease for September 2024, so the full 7.5% on gas applies.
Source: Texas Comptroller, approved severance tax exemptions.
Check the tax on your stub
Who buys the oil and gas?
Oil: Gulfmark Energy, Inc. gathers it. Gas from oil wells: Energy Transfer Company buys and gathers it. The buyer's price is what a royalty check is figured on.

How many 1099s should an owner expect for 2025?
Two companies filed this lease's reports behind 2025 checks: Burk Royalty Co., Ltd. and Maximus Operating, Ltd.. An owner paid by more than one of them gets a form from each. The operator is not always the company that pays, so go by the names on the stubs.
