This form allows the affiant to fill a gap in record title through personal knowledge of how a tract of land has been used and occupied for a specified time. This Standard Document can be tailored to the specific facts surrounding the land and those asserting exclusive ownership. This affidavit is combined with a statement claiming that no production of oil or gas has occurred for a given time to strengthen an assertion that prior oil and gas leases have expired for lack of production in paying quantities. This Standard Document has integrated notes with important explanations and drafting and negotiating tips.
