This longstanding institute again features outstanding speakers and varied topics in the oil, gas and mineral law area, anchored by the annual case law update provided by the program’s namesake, Professor Ernest E. Smith. The program is designed to be of interest to lawyers, landmen and other land and energy professionals.
In one focused day, the institute will cover a mix of traditional subjects and recent developments such as:
• Duties owed by the executive to non-executive owners
• Preferential rights and consent requirements
• Common defenses in lessor-lessee litigation
• Surface access (emphasis on urban areas)
• Federal qui tam actions
• Pending/recent Texas Supreme Court decisions on hydraulic fracturing
• Shifting of cost obligations between a seller and buyer
• Underground hydrocarbon storage in Texas
• Title examiner issues
• The recent boom—what’s different this time
