Mineral Servitude is the right conveyed by the landowner to produce minerals by another. In Louisiana, the owner of land generally owns only the right to produce minerals underneath the land. Under common law, the minerals may be severed from the surface land, if the mineral estate has not been severe. The owner may create separate surface and mineral estates. A principal difference is that the mineral servitude will be extinguished, through liberative prescription, after ten years of non-use, whereas a mineral estate is a (perpetual) estate in land.

Some own land that has the mineral rights, and in some cases the mineral rights have been sold off in earlier years. A lot of mineral rights are owned by oil companies and a lot are owned by individuals and a lot are owned by state governments and a lot by the federal government. Gathering up these "mineral rights" is the job of Petroleum Land Specialists, some of which work for oil companies and some of which are independent.
