## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Energy, Resources & Mining](https://ailawframework.com/practice/energy-resources-and-mining.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | From the lease and the conditions the lawyer supplies, list each dated obligation with the clause. If the lawyer states that a person pays royalty to the Office of Natural Resources Revenue, add the royalty-report timing in 30 C.F.R. § 1210.53 as its own row. Do not decide that a report is required. |
| What the lawyer must review | 30 C.F.R. § 1210.51(a) provides that any person who pays royalty to ONRR must submit royalty reports to ONRR. Section 1210.53(a) provides that completed Forms ONRR-2014 for royalty payments, and the associated payments, are due by the end of the month following the production month. Section 1210.53(b) provides that completed Forms ONRR-2014 for rental payments, where applicable, and the associated payments, are due as specified by the lease terms. Other conditions, including bonding, operations, and surface use, are whatever the lease and the applicable regulations say. The calendar uses the lease for those rows. 30 U.S.C. § 226(e) states a primary term of 10 years for competitive and noncompetitive leases issued under that section, continuing so long after the primary term as oil or gas is produced in paying quantities. The tool does not decide that production is in paying quantities and does not decide that a person pays royalty to ONRR. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: From the lease and the conditions the lawyer supplies, list each dated obligation with the clause. If the lawyer states that a person pays royalty to the Office of Natural Resources Revenue, add the royalty-report timing in 30 C.F.R. § 1210.53 as its own row. Do not decide that a report is required.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- The ONRR row is added only when the lawyer states that a person pays royalty to ONRR. A state lease or a fee lease does not get that row.
- Rental timing under § 1210.53(b) is the timing in the lease. The calendar does not substitute a statutory minimum.
