Blue Star Land Services

CORPORATION COMMISSION

Blue Star is unmatched in its knowledge and vast experience with all Oklahoma Corporation Commission regulatory filings. We pride ourselves in preparing comprehensive, well-researched respondent lists and assisting with attorneys in the filing of applications. Blue Star is also the top broker in Oklahoma when it comes to providing expert land testimony to the OCC. In the last five years alone, our team has provided testimony in spacings, location exceptions, multi-unit well applications, increased densities, separate allowables and poolings that have led to the drilling of hundreds of wells for a number of clients in this state.

LEASING

Blue Star understands the importance of lease assets to our clients. It is because of that common understanding that we put forth so much effort into our negotiations. Blue Star is aggressive while still sensitive to the relationships we develop with all mineral owners. We realize the bigger picture to any prospect is continuing relations as a prospect develops and grows. It is through the building of these relationships in the areas we work that allows the next lease negotiation to be more efficient. Blue Star emphasizes that the leases we acquire are accurate and clear of title defects. We have an array of experience working with different lease processing systems to allow our clients’ files to be stored and updated seamlessly.

TITLE RESEARCH

Blue Star specializes in all types of title research. Every Landman is thoroughly trained in held-by-production title and because of that comprehensive experience across our entire team we look forward to all projects no matter the difficulty. We quickly and efficiently tackle non-producing title so that a potential lease buy can take off before the competition. Our full ownership reporting is highly detailed and geared to the drilling of an initial well and future Oklahoma Corporation Commission applications. Blue Star has the capability of adapting our title research to the specific requirements of any project and are experienced in preparing a multitude of prospect-wide reports to capture and present the data required for the next step of a prospect.

RECORD IMAGING

Blue Star Land Services’ premier digital imaging department is experienced in all aspects of courthouse document acquisition. Our imaging crew offers in-the-field courthouse research assistance for landmen, title attorneys, and oil and gas companies. Whether shooting full sections from patent to present or performing abstract and curative research, we strive to meet the needs of our clients accurately and efficiently. We also offer a variety of delivery methods, from hand-delivery to online cloud submission. Our discreet team of trained professionals will provide high-quality results to our clients quickly and confidentially.

DUE DILIGENCE

Whether the acquisition is as small as buying mineral interests spanning a few sections or a multi-million dollar leasehold buy, Blue Star has the experience and team available to make this process as seamless as possible. With a tried-and-true reporting system, Blue Star is able to verify interests and assert defects in a timely, efficient manner to fit the client’s timeline and save money on the back end. We also have vast experience in negotiating big and small leasehold buys along with the preparation of agreements, assignments and assignment exhibits.

TITLE CURATIVE

We believe in maintaining and upgrading the integrity of our clients’ leasehold. It is our policy to gather the necessary curative documents to support any instruments we prepare in order to reduce the number of title requirements prior to drilling. Once a drilling title opinion or division order title opinion is rendered, Blue Star’s title curative team reviews all requirements and implements a protocol for prioritizing and satisfying those requirements. Our curative practices ensure that any defects in the chain of title are satisfied as quickly and thoroughly as possible and that the client is provided with quality curative support.
