Frequently Asked Questions
A division order is a document confirming ownership information in a particular property/unit and authorizing distribution of funds according to that information. The division order does NOT represent a sale of your property or any changes to your lease.
When you sign and return the Division Order, you confirm that you agree with the information disclosed in the document. If you have any questions regarding the content of your Division Order, please contact Sabine Oil & Gas Corp’s Land Administration Department ("Land Administration").
A transfer order is a document that is an adjunct to the division order used to confirm the transfer of an interest from one owner to another after preparation of the initial division order.
Royalties represent the interests retained by lessors under an oil, natural gas and mineral lease. Funds are payable on these interests based upon the value of a percentage of the minerals produced from the lease.
Sabine Oil & Gas Corp assigns each of its interest owners a unique owner number for internal identification purposes. Please include your owner number when communicating or corresponding with Sabine Oil & Gas Corp.
Your decimal is calculated as illustrated in the example below: mineral interest × royalty × (your acreage included in unit divided by total acreage of unit) or: 1/6 × 1/8 × (30.35 ÷ 638.34) = .00099052
