The Oil and Gas Regulator with an Unlikely Name:  The Texas Railroad Commission | Ep 15

In this episode, hosts Matt Jones and April L. Rolen-Ogden discuss the Texas Railroad Commission with Kelli Kenney, who is deeply immersed in the legal practice involving that agency. The Texas Railroad Commission is the earliest dedicated agency to regulate oil and gas, and it has been the model for most other states. This episode explains how it got its unlikely name, who it is governed, and its principal roles. From spacing regulations to pooling to unitization to allocation wells, the discussion touches upon the key roles of the agency in managing exploration and production in Texas.

Overriding Royalty Interests:  An Extra (But Often Necessary) Cost of Operating | Ep 14

Join Matt Jones and April L. Rolen-Ogden on Energy Law This Week as they delve into the complexities of overriding royalty interests in the oil and gas industry. This episode explores why they are granted and how they work, with emphasis on the “washout” issues that often accompany the interests. Because these burdens are often part of oil and gas transactions, and because they are the way in which many landmen, geologists, and geophysicists get paid, an enormous amount of money is often at stake. And as with most interests, there is often a question of what costs are borne by it, particularly when it comes to post-production costs.  Often abbreviated as ORRI, the  Over-Riding Royalty Interests is a key feature of many oil and gas net revenue streams. (Program Note: Matt wanted to describe these issues as an “either/ORRI” situation; April recoiled in horror.)

Clearing the Air: Carbon Capture & Sequestration in the New Era | Ep 13

In this episode, Matt and April are joined by LSU Law Professor, Keith Hall, to discuss carbon capture, sequestration, and storage, particularly in the wake of the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. The discussion focuses on exploring how the federal tax credits and other economic drivers relating to the regulatory frameworks are important to continued engagement in carbon capture projects. The conversation also addresses the responsibilities associated with CO2 storage and the potential for monetizing captured CO2. Legislative changes impacting these initiatives are examined in contrast to other renewables like wind and solar, along with the future prospects of carbon capture technology.
