Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion Louisiana lawmakers want to cut taxes for oil. They'd pay for it by upping taxes on natural gas.Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion Industry pushes back on Drill, Baby, Drill - Consumers will be disappointed with energy price promises"CA requires a special blend for gasoline, not required anywhere else in the US. Thus, there are fewer refineriws, and no refineries built in the last 30 - 40 years, since the gasoline produced can only be sold in CA. Yes, CA relies on…"
Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion Industry pushes back on Drill, Baby, Drill - Consumers will be disappointed with energy price promises"well, I would say that governments can certainly cause the price of oil “products” to go up. I lived in CA for a number of years. The price of gasoline is 50% higher than the rest of the country due to the State’s…"
Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion Are You Being Paid?"thanks for that info. disappointing news that it's a dry hole. I had a company (not ARK-LA-TEX) interested in drilling a Paluxy on my property a few years ago. I guess that's why they stopped calling."
Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion Are You Being Paid?"Skip: there is a Paluxy oil well drilled in property very near land I own. well is in 22-12N-13W, drilled by ARK-LA-TEX Energy, LLC (Shreveport)
and the last posting under well information is that the well was drilled, fracked, then…"
Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion Pencil Whipping"I should get whoever keeps these books to keep mine for my income tax returns. They would clearly pay for their costs by reducing my taxes.
Too many good ones to mention, but I do like the charge for ‘teflon tape”."
Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion The End of an Era"thanks, Skip, for this article. And, you are right - it is, unfortunately, the last of an era. It’s unfortunate that the “little guys” can get into the oil and gas business (at least as a driller/producer). As…"
Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion News Flash: Federal Energy Policy Does Not Retard Oil Production"well, if the new administration allows new LNG facilities to get built, once those come on line that will certainly help the domestic NG market. I understand, the LNG exporters must have reliable customers buying that exported NG, but the…"
Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion The Explosive Evolution of Fracking: A 75-Year Journey"great article. I knew that George Mitchell was the "Father of Fracking" but didn't understand the role he played. Also surprised by the 75 years ago aspect.
thanks for posting"
Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion Arkansas O&G Commission unanimously denies royalty rate application for lithium extraction"not sure I understand this. I haven’t been following the issue.
Did the companies enter into new leases with land/mineral owners for the right to extract Lithium? Presumably, a royalty rate was specified in the leases.…"
Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion Alarm Bells Are Ringing"not criticizing, just pointing out reality. and not suggesting we do less.
oh, and where do those EV’s in Chine get their power to charge up? Here would be an interesting study - total emissions from one of two test beds.…"
Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion Alarm Bells Are Ringing"It is disappointing that this article does not point fingers. The US and Europe have substantially reduced our emissions. China and India are dramatically higher. I don’t think that there is anything that the US or Europe can…"

China has a very aggressive expansion of coal…"
Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion Red states lose bid to pause EPA oil, gas methane rules"I’m confused. The writer says, twice, that the EPA is “asking” oil and gas companies to take certain actions. ASKS? If it is merely asking, then the companies can “just say No”. What…"
Steve P replied to Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant's discussion DOE, EPA outline $850M plan to slash methane emissions"I was not aware that the Inflation Reduction Act gave EPA the authority to regulate methane emissions from wells on non-federal lands. Does this mean that Operators have to obtain a permit from EPA before drilling a well on state or…"

Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant said… Steve, I will be meeting with the editor of the Shreveport newspaper to discuss the possibility of a series of articles highlighting mineral owner concerns. I am considering including the Comstock units with multiple expired well permits. It would be helpful if I could ask you a few basic questions. If you are willing to help, please email me at skippeel@gmail.com

Steve, I fully agree with your reply in the recent Dr. Fine/Robert Johnson discussion. I would like to point out that Robert Johnson is not posting out of interest in a discussion but specifically to increase the "web presence" of Dr. Fine. I don't know if he gets paid or not but the fact that he never makes a reply in these discussion threads and "favorites" each one indicates that he is just pumping up the listing of entries for anyone searching Dr. Fine on the Internet. Keith and I have discussed it and doing so isn't against the site rules and occasionally there is one or more members who do reply so Robert has not been banned from posting to GHS. I'm not a big fan of this kind of activity but it is common on the web.

The History of GoHaynesvilleShale.com
GoHaynesvilleShale.com (GHS) was launched in 2008 during a pivotal moment in the energy industry, when the Haynesville Shale formation—a massive natural gas reserve lying beneath parts of northwest Louisiana, east Texas, and southwest Arkansas—was beginning to attract national attention. The website was the brainchild of Keith Mauck, a landowner and entrepreneur who recognized a pressing need: landowners in the region had little access to…
