Companies who sublet/subcontract from major operators

Are the smaller operating companies that subcontract/sublet/sublease from bigger major companies??

If an operator has a 640 acre unit, can he allow other companies to come in and set up within that unit?

I'm not sure. I heard someone say PINNACLE OPERATING CO is a subcontractor for CHK. Not sure what that means.

Pinnacle Operating is a small, private O&G company.  Not a subcontractor.  Their connection to CHK is probably that they assigned the deep rights to their existing HBP leasehold for Haynesville/Bossier development.

ECA and HK assigned some of their shallow rights to Sklar.

Tuscaloosa Trend Sits On Top Of Poorest Neighbourhood For Decades - Yet No Royalties Ever Paid To The Community -- Why??

In researching the decades-old Tuscaloosa Trend and the immense wealth it has generated for many, I find it deeply troubling that this resource-rich formation runs directly beneath one of the poorest communities in North Baton Rouge—near Southern University, Louisiana—yet neither the university ( that I am aware of)  nor local residents appear to have received any compensation for the minerals extracted from their land.

This area has suffered immense environmental degradation…
