Frequently Asked Questions

What is a division order?
A division order is a document confirming your ownership of a particular property or unit. It also authorizes the distribution of funds according to your ownership decimal.

The division order does not represent a sale of your property or any changes to your lease. When you sign and return the division order, you confirm you agree with the information disclosed in the document.

Is my social security number or tax ID required?
Federal law requires you to furnish your Social Security or Taxpayer Identification Number. Failure to comply will result in tax withholding, which will not be refundable by payor.
When do I get paid?
Payments are mailed or deposited electronically into your account around day 26 of each month.

When will I receive a 1099 tax form?
The 1099 tax form is mailed out by January 31 of each year. You also can find your 1099 electronically on EnergyLink, a free and secure website. Register with EnergyLink at www.energylink.com.
Need to make an ownership change?
You have been assigned a unique owner number for your account. Please include your owner number in all communications with Ovintiv, including all voicemail messages and the subject line of any email correspondence.

The owner number can be found on your division order, check detail or 1099.

Can the revenue paid be adjusted after the check has been issued?
Yes, payments are subject to prior period adjustments, either upward or downward. Adjustments on your check detail can be identified by a positive and negative entry shown under the “Owner Net $.” The negative amount will indicate what was previously paid and the positive amount will indicate what should have been paid to you.

There are many factors that may result in a prior period adjustment, such as:

  • Revised production statements
  • Revised pricing information
  • Revised allocation of production
  • Accounting errors
Unclaimed funds/property and funds in suspense
Where can I research unclaimed property?

Each state makes an effort to locate the rightful owners of production revenues, holding the funds until the owner is found. To locate and collect unclaimed funds, please visit the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrator’s website.

How is abandoned property reported?

Each state has abandoned property (often referred to as escheat laws) that require the reporting of funds held for its residents. Once abandoned property has reached the state’s required dormancy period, it is paid to the state of the owner’s last known address.

When are royalty payments suspended?

For your protection, payments are suspended upon a title dispute, an assignment of interest, notice of death, transfer of property or in the event of no known address. Keeping your information current can prevent this inconvenience.

Joint interest billing (JIB)
EnergyLink can be used to obtain your Joint Interest Bills electronically from a free and secure website. You can register with EnergyLink for access at www.energylink.com.

How to email accounts receivable about JIB questions

For questions on your Joint Interest Bill, please email JIB.Accounting@ovintiv.com. In your request, please provide the Partner Number, which appears above the Company Name on the top left corner of the bill, Invoice Number and information on the question. The detail will allow us to research the specific question or forward your question to the correct team at Ovintiv USA Inc. and Newfield Exploration Company.

Netted Revenue Check

For owners that have expenses netted from revenue payments, a revenue check will be issued around the 25 of the month. This revenue check will show the amount of the deduction for JIB expenses. If you are interested in having your invoice netted against your revenue check, please email a Revenue Netting set up request to JIB.Accounting@ovintiv.com.

Payment info and remittance instructions

Please include the Partner Number, located above the Partner Name on the invoice, and the Invoice Number with your payment.
