Items on Your Check Detail


The check detail includes information for both the entire interest for which EOG remits a royalty payment, as well as your ownership interest. Information specific to your ownership interest can be found in the four columns on the right side of the check detail under the "Owner" heading. The other check detail columns contain property information and information applicable to the entire interest for which EOG remits a royalty payment. Definitions for all items displayed on the check detail include:

A iconOwner Name and Address: Your name and address according to our records. 

B iconCheck Number: The check number for the associated payment. 

C iconOwner Number: Your owner number as assigned by EOG. 

D iconPage Numbering: The specific page number and the total number of pages. 

E iconCheck Date: The date the check was issued. 

F iconProperty Name: The property name assigned by EOG or the property operator. 

G iconProperty Number: EOG’s internal number for the property. 

H iconDeck Code: EOG’s internal accounting code identifying ownership. 

I iconInterest Type: Your type of ownership in the property, as identified on the bottom right corner of the check stub and may include:

  • 1 Working Interest
  • 2 Royalty Interest
  • 3 Overriding Royalty Interest 

J iconOwner Interest: Your interest percentage in the property with respect to EOG’s royalty remittance obligation. 

K iconSettlement Interest: The interest used to calculate your share of the entire interest for which EOG remits royalty. EOG does not always own or have the right to sell all of the products produced from the property. EOG distributes to interest owners proportionately from proceeds received. In the above example, the .20 settlement interest indicates that EOG had the right to sell 50% of the gas (.10 owner interest divided by .20 settlement interest equals 50%). If EOG has the right to sell all of the products, the settlement interest will be equal to the owner interest. 

L iconProduction Date: Month and year when sales occurred. 

M iconProduct Type: Type of product for which payment is being remitted. Products reported are identified at the bottom left corner of the check stub and may include:

  • 1 Crude Oil

  • 4 Casinghead Gas
  • 7 Plant Products 

N iconQuantity: Barrels (Bbls) of crude oil, condensate, or plant products or thousand cubic feet (Mcf) of natural gas associated with the total sales from the property or the entire interest for which EOG remits a royalty payment. If the settlement interest is equal to the owner interest, then the quantity represents the total quantity (Mcf or Bbls) from the property (See note K). 

O iconAverage Price: Average price (before taxes and deducts) per Bbl or Mcf. 

P iconGross Value: Value of crude oil, condensate, plant products or natural gas associated with the quantity, as described above.
