Custom Title Services for Energy Projects

Custom title services provide research and documentation tailored to a project’s land, mineral, leasehold, or surface-rights needs. MAJR Resources reviews relevant public and private records, constructs chains of title, identifies encumbrances or ownership gaps, and organizes findings for clients and legal teams. The work can support oil and gas, renewable energy, infrastructure, acquisitions, leasing, and mineral-rights transactions.

Title research helps confirm who owns the interests required for a project and identifies issues that may affect development. A review can reveal prior conveyances, liens, easements, restrictive provisions, existing leases, or breaks in ownership history. Addressing these matters before acquisition, leasing, construction, or drilling helps teams evaluate risk, avoid avoidable delays, and negotiate with the appropriate parties.

A leasehold title review examines ownership and legal status of leasehold interests tied to a proposed energy project. It may include review of leases, assignments, conveyances, public records, chain-of-title history, and potential encumbrances. The objective is to verify interests, identify defects or competing claims, and provide a reliable foundation for leasing, acquisitions, development planning, or additional legal review.

Title curative work addresses defects, discrepancies, or missing documentation discovered during title research. Depending on the issue, it can involve preparing curative instruments, obtaining ratifications, coordinating probate or heirship research, and preparing pooling agreements. By resolving record and ownership issues early, curative work helps prevent title defects from delaying operations, transactions, and project schedules.

Yes. MAJR Resources provides investigative services for complex ownership situations, including heirship research and locating successors. This support is particularly useful when an owner has died, estate records are incomplete, family succession is unclear, or the chain of title contains gaps. Establishing the proper parties helps clients pursue mineral-rights negotiations, lease procurement, and curative work more accurately.

Yes. MAJR Resources prepares thorough, organized runsheets to support legal title opinions. A runsheet documents relevant ownership transfers, conveyances, encumbrances, leases, and potential curative concerns found in the record search. By giving attorneys and project stakeholders a structured record foundation, it can improve review efficiency and help identify questions that require further analysis before development proceeds.

Yes. Title and land research can be essential for commercial solar, wind, transmission, and other renewable projects. MAJR Resources supports renewable developers with ownership research, lease and easement procurement, right-of-way considerations, due diligence, and project assessment. These services help clarify land rights and identify existing surface uses, pipelines, easements, or other conditions that could affect project feasibility.

Provide the project location, county and state, legal description if available, the interests being evaluated, and the intended transaction or development purpose. Existing deeds, leases, maps, title materials, and known ownership information can also be helpful. With this foundation, MAJR Resources can determine the appropriate research scope, records to review, and deliverables needed for your project.
