Complex oil and gas gathering systems, processing plants, midstream operations, and oftentimes numerous intermediaries and operator-affiliated parties, paired with increasingly complicated oil and gas contract or lease provisions, require specific expertise to conduct a proper and thorough revenue or royalty audit. Most times it is impossible to decipher the sales volumes, prices paid, deductions taken, or even the net revenue interest from revenue remittances (NRI), much less make sure they are correct.
A revenue audit for oil and gas is performed to determine if working interest, net profits, royalty, or overriding royalty interest (ORRI) revenues are properly paid under the applicable agreement(s), such as a Joint Operating Agreement (JOA), oil and gas marketing agreements, farmout agreement, net profits lease, or oil and gas lease agreement.
A royalty audit for oil and gas is performed to determine if a lessor is properly paid under an oil and gas lease agreement. With the complexities and intricacies of today’s royalty lease agreements, it can be very difficult for operators to correctly account for revenue payments to royalty owners, especially when the lease agreements contain differing valuation and volume clauses than a typical Joint Operating Agreement (JOA).
