Waypoint Energy Series | Landman - Understanding the Role

Tait Duryea sits down with Cori Willett of Redwood Energy Services to demystify one of the most important but often misunderstood roles in oil and gas: the landman.  Cori explains how landmen verify ownership, source off-market deals, negotiate contracts, support due diligence, and help investors access opportunities that are not always publicly marketed.  The conversation also covers Waypoint Energy Fund’s deal flow, confidentiality requirements, closing documents, title verification, and why strong relationships are critical when investing in non-operated oil and gas wells. Cori Willett is the founder of Redwood Energy Services and an experienced landman with more than a decade in oil and gas. With a legal background from Texas A&M and experience across title research, land services, private equity, business development, and compliance, Cori helps mineral and non-op groups source deals, negotiate terms, and build strong industry relationships.
