The lease I executed with Chesapeake on my small acreage in DeSoto Parish (Sec. 29) expires shortly. Does anyone have information about whether Chesapeake is renewing outstanding leases (no automatic renewal allowed in my lease) and if so, when they typically contact the lessor? I know that they are drilling in the section adjacent to my land. I understand that if they do not contact me about renewal, I should notify them to file a lien release on my acreage so that other companies know my land is available for lease.
I appreciate any information others can provide- this site is so beneficial to those of us who reside far away and don't have "boots on the ground"!

This area has suffered immense environmental degradation…

AboutAs exciting as this is, we know that we have a responsibility to do this thing correctly. After all, we want the farm to remain a place where the family can gather for another 80 years and beyond. This site was born out of these desires. Before we started this site, googling "shale' brought up little information. Certainly nothing that was useful as we negotiated a lease. Read More |
