Four thousand easements in the file, and the client wants to know which ones allow a second line.

A client buys a system, plans an expansion, or wants a new line in an existing corridor. Someone has to read every grant on it. Most are scans. Some are typed, a few are handwritten, and the forms change every decade.

• Width is fifty feet on one tract and "sufficient for the purposes herein" on the next.
• One grant allows additional lines. The one beside it limits the corridor to a single pipeline.
• Assignment language, access rights, abandonment clauses, and surface restrictions change tract to tract.

Your team reads each one, keys the terms into a spreadsheet, and reconciles it against the tract list.

Every grant goes into one table.

• The terms your client asked about get pulled from every instrument: width, rights granted, number of lines, assignability, access, restrictions.
• Each cell cites the instrument and the page where the language sits.
• Grants that say nothing on a term get marked silent, so silence becomes a finding your team can see.

Then ask it.

Which tracts on this segment allow a second line? Which grants limit access to a single road? The answer comes back as a list of tracts with the source language attached.

Built against your questions

The fields get set during setup to the questions your client is asking. A collocation study reads for different terms than an acquisition audit. That configuration is part of the engagement.
