In Greene County, the Coal Owner May Own Some of the Gas
Greene County combines substantial Marcellus development with a long history of underground coal mining. Coal and oil-and-gas estates may have been severed at different times by different instruments, so the words in the title chain matter.
Pennsylvania’s Dunham Rule generally presumes that a private deed using only the word “minerals” did not include oil or natural gas. That presumption has allowed many families to retain gas even where a coal company holds an older mineral reservation.
Coalbed gas is treated differently. Pennsylvania cases recognize that gas contained within a coal seam generally follows ownership of the coal. Marcellus gas in non-coal strata is not coalbed gas, and the Supreme Court’s Butler decision left the Dunham presumption in place for that separate estate.
For a Greene County owner, the practical questions are what each severance instrument covers and which formation is being valued. We do the title work before quoting a number.
What We Check on a Greene County Interest
Every offer starts with the record, not a formula. We check:
- Every coal and oil-and-gas severance in the chain, including dates and exact wording
- Whether an instrument names oil or natural gas or uses only “minerals”
- Any separate coalbed methane rights
- Longwall mining and subsidence agreements appearing in the title record
- The lease’s royalty, deductions, formations, and depths
- Unit boundaries, well vintage, and production reported by Pennsylvania DEP
- Deeds and severances recorded in Greene County
- Heirship and estate records when the interest has passed through a family
That review usually takes 3 to 5 business days. Then you get a number in writing.
Common Questions
A coal company has held a reservation over our land since the 1890s. Do we own the gas?
Possibly. If the private deed says only “minerals” without naming oil or natural gas, Pennsylvania’s Dunham Rule creates a presumption that the gas was not included. The wording, evidence of intent, and any coalbed-gas issue still need to be reviewed.
Is coalbed methane the same as my Marcellus gas?
No. Gas contained within a coal seam is treated differently from gas produced from the Marcellus formation. The two interests may be owned by different parties under the same acre.
Does longwall mining under my land affect my gas royalty?
Not ordinarily as a direct royalty calculation, but mining, support, and subsidence agreements can complicate the title record. A Pennsylvania attorney should advise on any surface or subsidence dispute.
Are there commissions, closing costs, or hidden fees?
No. There is no broker commission, appraisal fee, title-search cost to you, or listing expense. We pay the recording fees and the cost of preparing the deed. The written offer is the amount paid to you, less any existing liens or unpaid taxes against the interest.
