They will agree to limit the lease to those depths from the surface to the base of the Pettit formation at 8,470 feet. They will agree to 25% royalty, 3 year term and a bonus of between $1000 and $1500.

Permalink Reply by Ben Elmore on June 29, 2012 at 5:13 Yes people are taking the offer. They can come back and lease the deep/Haynesville/Bossier.

I have some ownership down there in Sabine County. It's confusing because I didn't know this was a Sabine County site. Anyway, where are they leaseing? Is it around Milam? Thank you -
I think this area is around the Rosevine community. From what I have heard in SA county, they are working from the Ford's Corner community on Hwy 21 south thru the Rosevine area. But this could be a new project by Devon besides that one.
