JOINT INTEREST BILLING (JIB)

Jetta utilizes the EnergyLink (JIBLink) website to manage and issue joint interest billing information each month. EnergyLink provides owners with multiple options regarding JIB retrieval and processing, and there is no cost involved to access and view your JIB each month.

If you do not already have an existing EnergyLink account, please click on the link below to create a personal profile: https://www.energylink.com/Public/Signup.aspx

Should you have any questions about creating a profile, please contact EnergyLink’s helpdesk using the link below: https://www.energylink.com/contact

Joint interest billings are made available by the end of each month. Please note that Jetta utilizes a $5.00 minimum threshold before issuing a JIB; therefore, if your cumulative balance billed is under $5.00 in total, a JIB will not be issued until that threshold is met.

Remit payment to Jetta's PO Box address found on your JIB. Please include your assigned owner number and the invoice numbers of the JIBs that are included in your payment. If you are short paying (disputing) a charge on your JIB, please show the dispute in JIBLink or include a description of what balance(s) are being short paid along with your check.

When a JIB is netted, the expenses owed are deducted from the revenues due to you each month. This is an option many owners utilize to ensure that they are paying their share of expenses without having to issue a payment. If you would like to change your netting status, please contact our Joint Interest Billing Manager at 817-639-2326 or JIB@jettaoperating.com to discuss different options.

For any inquiries regarding your joint interest billing or account, please contact our Joint Interest Billing Manager at 817-639-2326 or JIB@jettaoperating.com, and we will be happy to assist you.
