We were sent a contract by LB Land Co. last year but did not reply as we are just starting to get educated on the process and possibilities of O&G leasing. The property is in W Bossier Parrish Township 23.
1. Any familiarity with activity in the area?
2. How is best to vet companies that are interested?
3. How to determine who is in the area and to make contact to let them know we are available for lease?
Cheers!

Rob, if your ownership in land/minerals is evidenced by an instrument (deed, donation, succession/judgement of possession, etc.) recorded in the public records of Bossier Parish any interested company will find you. It is better not to contact leasing companies as that usually ensures a low ball offer. Generally it's better to wait to be approached. The land company that offered leases in your area was J B Land Services. They ceased to record leases in Bossier Parish early last summer with the exception of a single memo of lease filed last October. I suggest that you join the Bossier Parish Group and read the discussions from that period of time regarding leasing and J B Land. Use this link:
Thanks, Skip. JB Land actually mis-identified our property. It is in Caddo Parrish, not Bossier. I found a North Caddo discussion and will continue there. I appreciate the help! Rob
You're welcome. Good Luck.
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…

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 |
