Create a Legally Structured Gross Overriding Royalty (GORR) Agreement for Alberta Oil & Gas Properties with this easy-to-use template.

Designed for use in Alberta's oil and gas industry, this downloadable Gross Overriding Royalty Agreement (GORR) Template grants a gross overriding royalty interest in petroleum and natural gas rights to an interested party while addressing key operational, payment, and sales / marketing provisions.

This agreement establishes the terms under which the gross overriding royalty is created, administered, paid, and enforced.

What Is a Gross Overriding Royalty?

A Gross Overriding Royalty (GORR) is a royalty interest carved out of a working interest in oil and gas lands. Unlike a working interest owner, the royalty holder is entitled to a share of production revenue without bearing the costs of exploration, drilling, development, operation, production, or transportation.

Unlike an Overriding Royalty (ORR), which is based on net proceeds or wellhead production,  a GORR entitles the royalty holder to a specified percentage of the gross revenues generated from the sale of the petroleum products.

Key Features of This Alberta Gross Overriding Royalty Agreement

• Grant of Gross Overriding Royalty. The Grantee receives a specified percentage royalty on sales of petroleum substances produced from the lands covered by the agreement. The royalty is payable free and clear of exploration, drilling, operating, production, transportation, and other related costs, subject only to any specifically agreed deductions.
• Sales and Marketing. The Grantor markets and sells the petroleum substances as agent for the Grantee on the same terms and conditions applicable to its own production. This ensures the royalty holder receives the benefit of available market opportunities and pricing.
  
  
• Royalty Payments Held in Trust. Any royalty proceeds received by the Grantor on behalf of the Grantee are held in trust until remitted, providing additional protection for royalty revenues.
  
  
• Option to Take Share in Kind. The Grantee may elect, upon proper notice, to receive its royalty share of production in kind rather than in cash, providing flexibility in managing royalty interests.
  
  
• Security and Lien Rights. The agreement grants the Grantee lien and security rights against the Grantor's interest to help secure payment of royalties and other obligations under the contract.
  
  
• Applicable Law. The agreement is governed by the laws of the Province of Alberta, and should only be used for Alberta oil and gas properties and mineral rights.

Benefits of Using This Template

• Save time and legal drafting costs.
• Clearly document royalty ownership and payment obligations.
• Protect royalty revenues with trust and lien provisions.

Easily draft an Overriding Royalty Agreement (ORR Agreement) for Alberta oil and gas properties with this professionally prepared, fully customizable template. Designed for use in connection with a Farmout and Option Agreement, this document helps parties clearly define royalty interests, production revenue entitlements, and ongoing administration responsibilities.

Whether you are an oil and gas producer, royalty owner, land department professional, energy consultant, lawyer, or investor, this template provides a practical framework for documenting overriding royalty interests in Alberta petroleum and natural gas assets.

The ORR Agreement is between two parties:

• The owner of interests in oil and gas leases, licences, permits, or royalty lands (the Grantor); and
• The party entitled to reserve or receive overriding royalty interests from the earned interest (the Grantee).

What Is an overriding royalty interest?

An overriding royalty interest (ORRI) is a proportional  interest in the production revenues from an oil and gas or mineral lease, that is carved out of the lease or working interest. The holder of the ORRI receives a share of production revenues without assuming any of the costs of drilling, development, or operations, subject to the terms of the Overriding Royalty Agreement.

This template legal document is specifically designed for transactions involving earned interests under a farmout arrangement and addresses the key legal and commercial issues commonly encountered in Alberta's upstream oil and gas industry.

Key Features of This Alberta ORR Agreement Template

Royalty Calculation Provisions

The template contains methods of calculating the overriding royalties on:

• Crude oil production
• Natural gas production
• Condensate production
• Associated petroleum substances.

Priority of the Overriding Royalty Interest

The agreement provides that the overriding royalty created under the contract is intended to be free from reduction by other royalties, burdens, charges, or encumbrances affecting the royalty lands, except as specifically provided in the agreement.

Agency Provisions

To simplify administration and marketing of production, the template authorizes the grantor to act as the grantee's agent for certain purposes, including:

• Entering into production sales contracts;
• Marketing petroleum substances;
• Collecting production revenues; and
• Administering royalty payments.

These provisions help to reduce administrative burdens and streamline operations.

Option to Take Production In Kind

The grantee may elect to take its share of production in kind rather than receive proceeds from sales conducted by the grantor.

Where the grantee does not separately market its production share, the agreement includes provisions for payment of a management fee based on a percentage of gross proceeds received.
