QuestionsfromtheField

TimothyC.DowdELIASBOOKSBROWN&NELSON

Editor’s Note: Each month this column will be de-voted to answering oil and gas title questions.

Q: In some counties, documents are not properly in-dexed. Are improperly indexed or misindexed instruments, such as an Oil and Gas Lease, considered to be constructive notice, or does the document constitute constructive notice only when it is properly indexed? – W.S.

A: In Oklahoma, the law appears to be uncertain. The Oklahoma Supreme Court noted in the 1922 case of Hodges v. Simpson, there are two lines of authority. One line holds that where one has an instrument and it is in proper form and he/she has delivered the instrument to the County Clerk’s Office, the holder of the instrument has performed all acts that the law requires of him and he/she is not responsible for any mistakes made by the recording officer in recording the instrument. The failure of the County Clerk will not work to the prejudice of the grantee or a subsequent assignee. The Oklahoma court adopted this line of authority in Hodges v. Simpson. Some other states, in what is considered to be the modern

view, hold that delivery of the instrument to the recording officer is not sufficient and that the failure of the County Clerk to properly perform his/her duties and correctly record the instrument can be attributed to the holder of the instrument and those claiming rights under him. These courts hold that a subsequent purchaser has the right to rely on the record as shown in the County Clerk’s records.

In the 1985 case of Will Rogers Bank and Trust Company v. First National Bank of Tahlequah, the Oklahoma Supreme Court seemingly adopted the modern trend. In Will Rog-ers, the Supreme Court held that a judgment lien was held to be unperfected when it was not properly indexed under the name of each debtor shown in the judgment . The court held that the erroneous recording and misindexing of the judgment rendered the judgment lien, to be unperfected on the debtor’s realty in Cherokee County. It held that the title of a bona fide purchaser, who had no notice of the judgment lien, is superior to the right of the judgment lien creditor whose lien was not properly indexed. In this 1985 case, the court did not distinguish or even discuss the earlier Hodges v. Simpson case.

Therefore, at this point, the law is certainly uncertain as to whether a misindexed oil and gas lease constitutes construc-tive notice. In the event that a land professional should determine that a document is not correctly indexed, then it should be brought to the attention of the County Clerk’s Of-fice so as to avoid any conflict or litigation in the future.

Questions from the FieldTimothy C. Dowd

ELIAS BOOKS BROWN & NELSON

Editor’s Note: Each month this column will be devoted to answering oil and gas title questions.

Q: I examined an Oil and Gas Lease dated July 1, 1984, covering tracts in Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. I have also examined copies of Oklahoma Corporation Commission Completion Reports (Form 1002) for the Smith 1-1 Well drilled in the SE/4 and the Smith No. 2 Well located in the NE/4 of Section 1.

During the primary term of the lease, two wells were drilled on the lands in Section 1. The first well, which is denoted as the Smith 1-1 Well, was commenced on October 13, 1984 and drilled in the S/2 SE/4 (which is not part of the leased tract). The Smith 1-1 was completed in a formation, which was established as a 160-acre drilling and spacing unit for the SE/4.

A second well, denoted as the Smith No. 2 Well, was drilled in the NE/4 of Section 1 (part of the leased tract) on April 24, 1986, and completed in the Hartshorne formation. The Hartshorne formation has not been established as a drilling and spacing unit for the NE/4 of Section 1.

Does the drilling of the Smith 1-1 Well in a drilling and spacing unit of 160-acres cause the lease to terminate outside the SE/4? What is the impact of the Smith No. 2 Well Well on the extension of the Smith 1-1 lease?

A: Title 52 O.S. 87.1(b) recites: "In case of a spacing unit of one hundred and sixty (160) acres or more, no oil and/or gas leasehold interest outside the spacing unit involved may be held by production from the spacing unit not more than ninety (90) days beyond expiration of the primary term of the lease." (This statute is frequently described as the “Statutory Pugh Clause”).

Unfortunately, there is no case law and only one law review article that construes this statute and its impact on wells drilled. The only guidance is the wording of the statute. In this situation the oil and gas lease would not have been extended solely by virtue of production from the spacing unit and the well drilled in the SE/4, but the lease was

Saudi Arabia may go broke before the US oil industry buckles It is too late for OPEC to stop the shale revolution. The cartel faces the prospect of surging US output whenever oil prices rise

By Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, www.telegraph.co.uk, August 5, 2015

If the oil futures market is correct, Saudi Arabia will start running into trouble within two years. It will be in existential crisis by the end of the decade.

The contract price of US crude oil for delivery in December 2020 is currently $62.05, implying a drastic change in the economic landscape for the Middle East and the petro-rentier states.

The Saudis took a huge gamble last November when they stopped supporting prices and opted instead to flood the market and drive out rivals, boosting their own output to 10.6m barrels a day (b/d) into the teeth of the downturn.

Bank of America says OPEC is now "effectively dissolved". The cartel might as well shut down its offices in Vienna to save money.

If the aim was to choke the US shale industry, the Saudis have misjudged badly, just as they misjudged the growing shale threat at every stage for eight years. "It is becoming apparent that non-OPEC producers are not as responsive to low oil prices as had been thought, at least in the short-run," said the Saudi central bank in its latest stability report.

"The main impact has been to cut back on developmental drilling of new oil wells, rather than slowing the flow of oil from existing wells. This requires more patience," it said.

One Saudi expert was blunter. "The policy hasn't worked and it will never work," he said.

By causing the oil price to crash, the Saudis and their Gulf allies have certainly killed off prospects for a raft of high-

cost ventures in the Russian Arctic, the Gulf of Mexico, the deep waters of the mid-Atlantic, and the Canadian tar sands.

Consultants Wood Mackenzie say the major oil and gas companies have shelved 46 large projects, deferring $200bn of investments.

The problem for the Saudis is that US shale frackers are not high-cost. They are mostly mid-cost, and as I reported from the CERAWeek energy forum in Houston, experts at IHS think shale companies may be able to shave those costs by 45pc this year - and not only by switching tactically to high-yielding wells.

Advanced pad drilling techniques allow frackers to launch five or ten wells in different directions from the same site. Smart drill-bits with computer chips can seek out cracks in the rock. New dissolvable plugs promise to save $300,000 a well. "We've driven down drilling costs by 50pc, and we can see another 30pc ahead," said John Hess, head of the Hess Corporation.

It was the same story from Scott Sheffield, head of Pioneer Natural Resources. "We have just drilled an 18,000 ft well in 16 days in the Permian Basin. Last year it took 30 days," he said.

The North American rig-count has dropped to 664 from 1,608 in October but output still rose to a 43-year high of 9.6m b/d June. It has only just begun to roll over. "The freight train of North American tight oil has kept on coming," said Rex Tillerson, head of Exxon Mobil.

He said the resilience of the sister industry of shale gas should be a cautionary warning to those reading too much into the rig-count. Gas prices have collapsed from $8 to $2.78 since 2009, and the number of gas rigs has dropped 1,200 to 209. Yet output has risen by 30pc over that period.

Until now, shale drillers have been cushioned by hedging contracts. The stress test will come over coming months as these expire. But even if scores of over-leveraged wild-catters go bankrupt as funding dries up, it will not do OPEC any good.

The wells will still be there. The technology and infrastructure will still be there. Stronger companies will mop up on the cheap, taking over the operations. Once oil

Until now, shale drillers have been cushioned by hedging contracts. The stress test will come over coming months as these expire. But even if scores of over-leveraged wild-catters go bankrupt as funding dries up, it will not do OPEC any good.

The wells will still be there. The technology and infrastructure will still be there. Stronger companies will mop up on the cheap, taking over the operations. Once oil

climbs back to $60 or even $55 - since the threshold keeps falling - they will crank up production almost instantly.

OPEC now faces a permanent headwind. Each rise in price will be capped by a surge in US output. The only constraint is the scale of US reserves that can be extracted at mid-cost, and these may be bigger than originally supposed, not to mention the parallel possibilities in Argentina and Australia, or the possibility for "clean fracking" in China as plasma pulse technology cuts water needs.

Mr Sheffield said the Permian Basin in Texas could alone produce 5-6m b/d in the long-term, more than Saudi Arabia's giant Ghawar field, the biggest in the world.

Saudi Arabia is effectively beached. It relies on oil for 90pc of its budget revenues. There is no other industry to speak of, a full fifty years after the oil bonanza began.

Citizens pay no tax on income, interest, or stock dividends. Subsidized petrol costs twelve cents a litre at the pump. Electricity is given away for 1.3 cents a kilowatt-hour. Spending on patronage exploded after the Arab Spring as the kingdom sought to smother dissent.

The International Monetary Fund estimates that the budget deficit will reach 20pc of GDP this year, or roughly $140bn. The 'fiscal break-even price' is $106.

Far from retrenching, King Salman is spraying money around, giving away $32bn in a coronation bonus for all workers and pensioners.

He has launched a costly war against the Houthis in Yemen and is engaged in a massive military build-up - entirely reliant on imported weapons - that will propel Saudi Arabia to fifth place in the world defence ranking.

The Saudi royal family is leading the Sunni cause against a resurgent Iran, battling for dominance in a bitter struggle between Sunni and Shia across the Middle East. "Right now, the Saudis have only one thing on their mind and that is the Iranians. They have a very serious problem. Iranian proxies are running Yemen, Syria, Iraq, and Lebanon," said Jim Woolsey, the former head of the US Central Intelligence Agency.

Money began to leak out of Saudi Arabia after the Arab Spring, with net capital outflows reaching 8pc of GDP annually even before the oil price crash. The country has since been burning through its foreign reserves at a vertiginous pace.

The reserves peaked at $737bn in August of 2014. They dropped to $672 in May. At current prices they are falling by at least $12bn a month.

Khalid Alsweilem, a former official at the Saudi central bank and now at Harvard University, said the fiscal deficit must be covered almost dollar for dollar by drawing down reserves.

The Saudi buffer is not particularly large given the country's fixed exchange system. Kuwait, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi all have three times greater reserves per capita. "We are much more vulnerable. That is why we are the fourth rated sovereign in the Gulf at AA-. We cannot afford to lose our cushion over the next two years," he said.

Standard & Poor's lowered its outlook to "negative" in February. "We view Saudi Arabia's economy as undiversified and vulnerable to a steep and sustained decline in oil prices," it said.

Mr Alsweilem wrote in a Harvard report that Saudi Arabia would have an extra trillion of assets by now if it had adopted the Norwegian model of a sovereign wealth fund to recyle the money instead of treating it as a piggy bank for the finance ministry. The report has caused storm in Riyadh.

"We were lucky before because the oil price recovered in time. But we can't count on that again," he said.

OPEC have left matters too late, though perhaps there is little they could have done to combat the advances of American technology.

In hindsight, it was a strategic error to hold prices so high, for so long, allowing shale frackers - and the solar industry - to come of age. The genie cannot be put back in the bottle.

The Saudis are now trapped. Even if they could do a deal with Russia and orchestrate a cut in output to boost prices - far from clear - they might merely gain a few more years of high income at the cost of bringing forward more shale production later on.

Yet on the current course their reserves may be down to $200bn by the end of 2018. The markets will react long before this, seeing the writing on the wall. Capital flight will accelerate.

The government can slash investment spending for a while - as it did in the mid-1980s - but in the end it must face draconian austerity. It cannot afford to prop up Egypt and maintain an exorbitant political patronage machine across the Sunni world.

We purchase producing and non-producing mineral rights, royalties, overriding royalties, and working interests.
