Acquisitions and Divestitures
Land Due Diligence for Acquisitions and Divestitures
Lobo Land provides experienced land due diligence for oil and gas, mineral, and leasehold transactions.
We help buyers and sellers understand the land position, identify issues that need attention, and keep the work moving toward closing.
Start a ConversationExperienced Judgment When Timing Matters
A transaction can involve substantial records, competing deadlines, and questions that don't resolve themselves neatly in a spreadsheet.
Lobo Land brings field, in-house, and executive land experience to the review. We work with your acquisition team, management, legal counsel, and other professionals to distinguish routine follow-up from matters that may affect the transaction.
Our role is to make the findings useful: what we found, why it matters, and what needs to happen next.
What We Can Review
- Mineral and Leasehold Ownership
- Research and analysis of ownership records and supporting documentation, including working interests, net revenue interests, and mineral or royalty interests, as appropriate to the assignment.
- Leases and Agreements
- Review of leases, assignments, operating agreements, and related land documents to identify relevant terms, obligations, consent requirements, and other matters requiring attention.
- Land Records and Supporting Data
- Comparison of available land schedules, ownership information, maps, and source documents to identify discrepancies, missing information, and questions for follow-up.
- Title Issues and Curative Coordination
- Identification and tracking of potential ownership or documentation issues, with coordination of curative efforts and legal review where needed. Land due diligence supports, but does not replace, legal counsel's title opinions or legal advice.
- Transaction and Closing Support
- Land-related support for diligence questions, issue lists, document coordination, and closing preparation within the agreed scope.
Findings Your Team Can Act On
The value of due diligence is not simply the volume of material reviewed. It is whether the work helps your team understand the position and make informed decisions.
Depending on the assignment, deliverables may include ownership summaries, document references, discrepancy reports, outstanding-item lists, and land-related closing support.
We establish the scope and reporting expectations at the outset so the review fits the transaction, available records, and timeline.
Support for Buyers and Sellers
For Buyers
Evaluate the land information supporting an acquisition, identify gaps or inconsistencies, and organize matters that require further investigation or resolution.
For Sellers
Prepare and organize land information, address known gaps, and respond to buyer diligence requests with a clearer, better-supported record.
Lobo Land can work alongside an existing land department or provide the land function for an operator without a full-time, in-house team.
How We Work
We begin with the proposed transaction, the assets involved, the available information, and the deadlines.
Together, we define the review priorities, responsibilities, reporting format, and how findings will be communicated. As the work progresses, we coordinate questions and outstanding matters with the appropriate members of your team.
The goal is a clear, practical land review that supports the transaction without losing sight of the details.
