HUMBLEOIL & REFINING Company’s Baytown refinery, 30 miles from Houston on the Ship Channel at Mitchell Bay, covers approximately 3,000 acres. Its southeast portion in- cludes Blackwell Peninsula between Black Duck Bay and the Ship Channel. The first tract of land, comprising approximately 2,200 acres adjacent to the Houston Ship Channel, was chosen for its tidewater advantages. Construction was begun in 1919 on a refinery to process grade "A" coastal crude for the produc- tion of lubricating oils. Loading docks on the channel, and a housing section for employees were begun at the same time. In the meantime, men lived in tents, ate in mess halls and workedin the low-lying, rice-field land turned into a sea of mudby incessant rains. OnMay 11, 1920, the first oil was charged to stills. Formal completion was celebrated on April 21, 1921. Even before the plant was placed in operation, however, Baytownrefinery underwent considerable change in original plans. This pattern of improvement, and expansion, has been carried on by Humblefrom that time to the present.

Trace the boom-and-bust cycle of oil and gas during the 1920s and 1930s. With the discovery of oil at Spindletop, thousands of fortune seekers flooded into Texas, turning small towns into overcrowded cities almost overnight. An oil worker’s wife described life in East Texas in 1931. There were people living in tents with children. There were a lot of them that had these great big old cardboard boxes draped around trees, living under the trees. And any- and everywhere in the world they could live, they lived. Some were just living in their cars, and a truck if they had a truck. And I tell you, that was bad. Just no place to stay whatsoever.

Anadarko E&P Onshore, LLC2 the Texas Supreme Court answered a question that had been pondered by many an oil and gas practitioner over the years. It is well settled that the mineral estate owner has the right to explore for and produce oil, gas and other minerals. But who has the authority to grant or deny an off-lease operator the right to drill through the mineral estate to reach minerals under an adjacent tract? Absent pooling or some other contractual arrangement, we now know that it is the owner of the surface estate. As a result, Lightning Oil Company, as the owner of the mineral estate in land, had no right to exclude others from traversing through the subsurface of that land. Anadarko would not be committing trespass by doing so if it had the surface owner’s permission. The Law Before Lightning – the 800 Pound Gorilla Named Howell Prior to Lightning, Texas courts had generally held that a mineral interest owner whose lands were crossed to reach oil or gas on an adjoining tract of land may be entitled to an injunction if it could be shown that the drilling of the well interfered with his right to produce minerals from his tract.3 But, as to what constituted “interference with the right to produce minerals,” Texas courts offered little guidance and at least one court suggested that almost 1 William Empson, Legal Fiction, in POETRY OF THE LAW: FROM CHAUCER TO THE PRESENT 107, 107 (David Kader & Michael Stanford, eds., 2010) 2 No.

About fifteen of these become tropical depressions, areas of low pressure with closed wind patterns. Of the fifteen, ten become tropical storms, and six become hurricanes. Every five years, one of the hurricanes will become reach category five status, normally in the western Atlantic or western Caribbean. About every fifty years, one of these extremely intense hurricanes will strike the United States, with disastrous consequences. Texas has seen its share of hurricane activity over the many years it has been inhabited. Nearly five hundred years ago, unlucky Spanish explorers learned firsthand what storms along the coast of the Lone Star State were capable of. Despite these setbacks, Spaniards set down roots across Mexico and Texas and started colonies. Galleons filled with gold and other treasures sank to the bottom of the Gulf, off such locations as Padre and Galveston Islands.
