Can you a private land owner drill crude oil on my land without government intrusion?

Assuming that you have 'mineral rights' to the land you own, then yes you would have the freedom to drill for crude oil if you want as that is your right to do with your land as you please. However, with that said, you will have to follow the rules and regulations set forth by the government . Most companies that do explore drilling on your land will want to have the rights to the oil and pay you a premium or percentage of the oil if any is found. I am sure if you didnt want to agree to that, you could find someone to drill the well without the oil rights if you are financially backing them. But to answer your question, yes you have that right. keep in mind, your liability will go up though as well (i.e if you cause an oil spill or some other disaster you would be responsible if you financed the well drilling yourself
