STRATAHAWK

Features

Every piece of the job, pointing at every other piece

Six things you are probably running across four tools and a spreadsheet. Here they know about each other, so answering a question stops meaning opening four windows. Your own work, or — if you are an administrator — the whole shop.

Your day

  • You open the app and know what is on you. Open requirements, opinions, units and clients — press a number and you are in the list.
  • Somebody asks how the month went. Throughput over thirty days, three months or the whole run, out to Excel while they are still on the phone.
  • Your day writes itself while you work. Log something from the truck and something else from the desk and the two merge, instead of one wiping the other.

Curative

  • Curative stops living in a spreadsheet. Every requirement sits on the opinion that raised it, with a name against it and the paper attached.
  • Work it the way your shop works. List or board, your own statuses — not somebody else's idea of how a file should move.
  • Two letters overlap and the same requirement gets cleared twice. Match audit finds those. For administrators.

Units, wells and operators

  • One company, one record, however the permit spelled it. Operators carry their P-5 number, and can be published so every shop is working off the same one.
  • A unit gets sold and the file goes stale. Keep who ran it and when — recorded from the unit or from the operator, whichever you happen to have open.
  • Permits and plats read for you. The arithmetic is shown alongside, so you are the one deciding what is solid enough to publish.

Documents and owners

  • Every instrument with its parties and its citation. Grantor, grantee, book, volume and page — plus the deed it came out of and the lease a release lets go.
  • The chain does not add up and you are flipping between two PDFs. Put the two instruments side by side and find out where it breaks.
  • One person, four spellings, four owners. Aliases and connections hold them together, so the same person stops counting twice.

Tracts and title

  • Run title and read the chain back in order. A runsheet built from the documents on the tract: who took what from whom, and when.
  • Surface and mineral are two answers. Gaps counted separately for each, and marked plainly where nobody has been through yet.
  • Everything about the tract in one record. Legal descriptions, plots, and the wells sitting on it, each on its own tab.

Plotter and CAD

  • Type the calls off the deed and watch the tract draw itself. Or plot a description already read off an instrument you uploaded.
  • Know whether it closes before you rely on it. Acreage on the adjusted traverse, with the misclosure in feet rather than buried three screens down.
  • Open a plat from a tract's description and it saves back to that tract. No exporting, no second copy to keep straight.

Where this fits

Nobody runs one tool. Here is the one this replaces.

Land work spreads across a lease system, a data subscription, a title tool and a spreadsheet for what you are owed. StrataHawk takes the middle of that, and says plainly what it leaves alone.

What it replaces

  • The spreadsheet tracking which curative is still open
  • The shared drive of letters, run sheets and scans nobody can search
  • The second spreadsheet for mileage and what to bill
  • The email thread that answers who operated the unit in 2016

What it sits beside

  • Your lease system. Obligations, rentals, division orders and royalty stay where they are
  • Your data subscription. Bring the documents; StrataHawk reads and links them
  • Your books. Expenses are tracked and reimbursed here — nothing posts to your ledger
  • Your GIS. The plotter draws a tract from its calls; it is not a mapping department

What it is not

  • Not a leasing or offer-tracking tool
  • Not mineral valuation or lead generation
  • Not a substitute for your attorney's opinion — it holds the opinion and chases what the opinion asks for
  • Not worth buying if you are holding by production and are not leasing or curing anything

Ownership

An interest off a letter is not an interest off the record

So StrataHawk will not print them the same. Every owner on an opinion carries how its interest is known — confirmed by the recorded instrument, part of the way there, off a letter, or nobody has been through it yet. The last one says so, instead of sitting in the list looking as clean as the rest.

Four labels. You already work this way — now the file does too.

Owner ATract 1Confirmed by record
Owner BTract 1Partly confirmed — 2 of 3
Owner CTract 2Letter only · 1 not checked
Owner DTract 1, Tract 2Not checked

The labels are the product's own. The owners are made up.

Run title

Point it at a tract and read the chain

Give StrataHawk the documents you have and it builds the runsheet — who took what from whom, in order. Where the chain breaks, it tells you where. And it keeps surface and mineral apart, because on most tracts in Texas they are two different answers and have been since somebody severed them.

What comes back is a report to read, not a verdict. The gaps are named, so you know exactly what is left to chase.

Plotter

Type the calls. Watch it close.

Metes and bounds off the deed, drawn to scale, with the acreage on the adjusted traverse and the misclosure spelled out in feet and a bearing. An 1890s description in chains was never going to close tight — a poor ratio usually describes the instrument, not your work. The plotter gives you the ratio and the misclosure; the judgment stays yours.

37.43 acres · closes 1:8,284 · misclose 0.60 ft

A tract plotted from five metes-and-bounds courses, with acreage, perimeter, closure ratio and the stated misclosure beside it.
A made-up description, plotted in the real thing: 37.43 acres on the adjusted traverse, closing 1:8,284, misclose stated.

Operators

Who ran it then, and who runs it now

Units change hands and nobody updates the file. StrataHawk keeps each operator with the dates it held the unit, so a question about 2016 is as easy to answer as one about this morning. Active wells in a unit follow it, and you can record the change from the unit or from the operator — whichever you happen to have open.

The P-5 number keeps one company to one record and points at its likely wells, so a different spelling on a permit does not quietly become a second operator.

A dated history, not a field somebody typed over

A unit record showing its operator history: an earlier operator with a date range, and the current one since a given date.
A made-up unit. One operator since 2021, the one before it kept with its dates rather than written over.

Money

What the work cost, without the second spreadsheet

Land software either runs your records or tracks your billing. You do both, so the other half has been living in a spreadsheet.

Log mileage from the truck and it prices itself off the client's rates. Submit when you are ready, pull it back if you were not. An administrator pays the batch from one screen, and everyone can see where their money sits without having to ask. Raise a rate today and nothing behind you moves.
