MRP 321: The Messy Title Easy Button: Stipulation of Interest and Cross-Conveyance

If you've ever inherited minerals and received an unexpected document from an oil and gas company asking you to sign something called a "stipulation of interest and cross-conveyance," you're not alone — and you may not have known what it meant or what to do next. In this episode, we break down exactly what these documents are, why operators use them, when you're likely to encounter one, and what your options are if the ownership percentages don't look right to you. Whether you're a first-generation mineral owner or managing an inherited interest that's been passed down for decades, understanding these instruments could save you thousands of dollars in unnecessary legal fees and help you start receiving your royalty checks sooner.
