Jim,
They aren't registered with RRC as "Minichi" so they aren't operating under that name in Texas. Maybe they bought out someone else... name and all. There were nearly 12K registered operators at the end of May so... anyone want to guess?

Any info on WHERE in Pt Coupee the acreage is located?
Permalink Reply by Skip Peel - Mineral Consultant on I would guess at least a portion lies in the Lacour Field. Some of the Point Coupee group members could probably expand on that.
Minishi is a "specialized" highway bridge builder about like they are an E&P operator. These aren't bridges. They're buggy trails. That's it!!! Minishi is the Amish Mafia!!!

I looked it up and it was a vacant lot in Pennsylvania. Minichi appeared to be using the expired leases to beef up their local reputation in that state and the Marcellous gas fields in the Northeast USA. They are concrete contractors that bought a modern work over rig to be used up there. So I suspect they do not have a clue about Louisiana and Austin Chalk/Tuscaloosa Trend strata's nor do they have the capital or equipment to drill those areas.
