Royalty Check Deduction - Aggregation Fee

Diversified Production is my current Producer/Operation of primary natural gas & some condensate in North Louisiana. Diversified acquiring my lease from TANOS, Tyler, TX 2 years ago, and just two months ago (March, 2023 production) they began charging an Aggregation Fee for gas and oil. This fee has never been applied on my royalty check since original production began in December, 2015, until now. Does anyone know what this fee is being charged for? I am receiving royalties from only one well, but it is a horizonal well producing from two Sections. I have emailed my Operator, but have not received a response yet. Thanks for any help or advise you may have!

Sounds like it might be another name for gathering. Send the operator a certified letter return receipt and ask why you are getting charged now since it was never charged before. Check your lease to see if you have allowed post production charges.
