A lease issued as a result of this sale will have a primary term of 10 years.

Once a lease is producing, you must pay a royalty of 16.67 percent (or as the lease is amended) of the value or the amount of production removed or sold from the lease. You will find other lease terms on the standard lease form. (Form 3100-011, March 2023).
