Description

It is not uncommon to encounter a situation where a mineral owner owns all the mineral estate in a tract of land, but the royalty interest in that tract has been divided and conveyed to a number of parties; i.e., the royalty ownership is not common in the entire tract. If a lease is granted by the mineral owner on the entire tract, and the lessee intends to develop the entire tract as a producing unit, the royalty owners may desire to enter into an agreement providing for all royalty owners in the tract in production royalty, regardless of where the well is actually located on the tract. This form of agreement accomplishes this objective. Wisconsin Commingling and Entirety Agreement By Royalty Owners is a legal document that governs the co-mingling and entirety of royalty ownership in lands subject to lease in the state of Wisconsin. This agreement is particularly relevant in cases where multiple individuals or entities share ownership of the royalties derived from leased lands, and the ownership varies among different sections or tracts of the land.

Fractional Commingling Agreement: This type of agreement is used when multiple royalty owners with varying ownership percentages agree to co-mingle their royalties derived from different sections or tracts of the leased land. 2. Proportional Commingling Agreement: In cases where royalty owners have different shares of ownership in the lands subject to lease, a proportional commingling agreement is used to determine the proportionate distribution of royalties based on their ownership percentages. 3. Unit Agreement: A unit agreement is another type of commingling agreement that is commonly used when a group of royalty owners agree to form a unit for the purposes of drilling and production, and sharing the resulting royalties. 4. Entirety Agreement: An entirety agreement is utilized when royalty owners with varying ownership interests in different tracts or sections of the leased land wish to combine their interests into a single, undivided share of ownership. 5. Joint Operating Agreement: While not specific to commingling and entirety, a joint operating agreement can be relevant in cases where multiple royalty owners with varying ownership interests collaborate in the exploration, development, and operation of the leased lands. These types of Wisconsin Commingling and Entirety Agreements are essential for ensuring fair distribution and management of royalties among multiple owners whose ownership interests vary across different sections or tracts of the leased land. By clarifying rights, responsibilities, and the allocation of income, these agreements provide clarity and minimize potential conflicts among the royalty owners.
