Farmout Sample Clauses

A Farmout clause is a contractual provision commonly used in the oil and gas industry to allow one party (the "farmor") to assign a portion of its interest in a lease or license to another party (the "farmee") in exchange for the farmee undertaking certain exploration or development activities. Typically, the farmee agrees to drill wells or perform other work at its own expense, and upon completion of these obligations, earns a specified interest in the property. This clause facilitates the sharing of financial risk and technical expertise, enabling resource holders to advance projects without bearing the full cost or risk themselves.

Farmout. On June 26, 2015 (the “Earn-In Closing Date”) and under seven separate Earning Agreements (the “Earning Agreements”), Paltar will farm out three specific graticular blocks in each of the six petroleum exploration permits identified in Schedule A and will cause Officer to farm out forty blocks in EP 468 in exchange for Nation’s (i) issuance of an aggregate 600 million Nation common shares (the “Nation Shares”) to Paltar, with an agreed value of US$.0333 per share, on the second business day following the Nation Meeting (defined in Paragraph 3, below), and (ii) payment to Paltar of an aggregate $5,315,000 by December 31, 2015. Each Earning Agreement will require that Nation Australia perform all necessary work and make all necessary expenditures to keep each concerned exploration permit in full force and effect until production licenses have been granted covering the three blocks identified in that permit, although Nation Australia may voluntarily terminate the Earning Agreement and surrender any further earning rights after the end of three permit years. Upon issuance of a production license covering one of the blocks, Paltar (or, if applicable, Officer) will assign its interest in such license, insofar as it covers the block, to Nation Australia. Production licenses are granted only where there has been a petroleum discovery, so there is no assurance that production licenses will be granted covering any of the blocks. There has been no discovery of petroleum on any of the permits and the permits produce no revenues.

Farmout. In October 1999, Leviathan executed an agreement with El Paso Production Company ("EPP"), formerly Sonat Exploration Company, to farm out its working interest in the ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank 958 Unit. Under the terms of the farmout agreement, Leviathan increased its overriding royalty interest in the ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 958 Unit, convertible at its option, into an undivided working interest once EPP has recouped the costs associated with its drilling and completion activities on the ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank 958 Unit. In July 1999, Leviathan entered into a contract with MODEC International, L.L.C., ("MODEC") for the design, construction, fabrication and installation of the hull, tendons, pilings and production risers for a tension-leg platform ("TLP") to be used as part of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank 958 Unit development. Upon the farm out of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank 958 Unit, Leviathan suspended the construction of the TLP and is currently discussing its use at a different location with several major producers. Leviathan expects to incur up to $10 million of costs related to the TLP which is expected to be recovered through the ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank 958 Unit farmout agreement. As a result, management does not expect the ultimate resolution of this matter to have a material adverse effect on Leviathan's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Leviathan is involved from time to time in various claims, actions, lawsuits and regulatory matters that have arisen in the ordinary course of business, including various rate cases and other proceedings before the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Leviathan and several subsidiaries of El Paso Energy have been named defendants in actions brought by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ on behalf of the United States Government under the False Claims Act. Generally, the complaints allege an industry-wide conspiracy to underreport the heating value as well as the volumes of the natural gas produced from federal and Indian lands, thereby depriving the United States Government of royalties. Leviathan and El Paso Energy believe the complaint is without merit, and will not have a material adverse effect on Leviathan's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Leviathan is a defendant in a lawsuit filed by Transco Gas Pipe Line Corporation ("Transco"). Transco alleges that a platform space agreement entered into on June 28, 1994, with Leviathan grants Transco the right to expand its faciliti...
Farmout. In October 1999, we farmed out our working interest in the Prince Field to El Paso Production. Under the terms of the farmout agreement, our net overriding royalty interest in the Prince Field increased to a weighted average of approximately 9 percent. Once El Paso Production recoups the costs associated with its drilling and completion activities on the field, we can convert our royalty interest into a 30 percent undivided working interest. EL PASO ENERGY PARTNERS, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Other In ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ announced its intent to reserve its remaining costs associated with certain of its ▇▇▇▇▇ as a result of production problems. Accordingly, we recorded a charge totaling $21.2 million in the consolidated statements of operations. This charge consisted of approximately $6.4 million to reserve our investment in certain gathering facilities and other assets associated with these properties, approximately $3.8 million to fully accrue its abandonment obligations associated with the gathering facilities serving these properties, approximately $9.1 million to reserve its noncurrent receivable related to the prepayment of the demand charge obligations under certain agreements, and approximately $1.9 million to accrue certain abandonment obligations associated with its Viosca ▇▇▇▇▇ and Garden Banks properties. During 1998, we abandoned our ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank flowlines at a cost of $2.9 million and recorded a credit to impairment of $1.1 million, which represented the excess of the accrued costs over the actual costs incurred associated with the abandonment of the flowlines.
