Hi, Enjoyed your post. I am new to all of this. I could use some help understanding this game. Regarding your Sept 25, 2017 post, you said, "Obviously most of the Haynesville Shale units have been in production for a good many years past 90 days yet only a small fraction of the unit surveys have been provided to the state and therefor they are not in the state O&G database where the public would have access to them." This is part of my problem. A company contacted me and paid me for my mom's well that no one knew existed. Almost ten years, and no one knew anything about this well. A few months ago they called again, telling me that they would be cutting another check for other wells that should have been paid to my family over the last 54 years. I was told the check would be cut by Sept. The check never arrived. I called to inquire and was told it would not be until after the first of next year. I want go into all the excuses she told me. Two weeks later, when the normal monthly check did not arrive, I called the company. Now only two weeks later, telling me there is 'another' mistake and they will be taking a huge amount of that money back. I know I was lied to when I called two weeks before. All they will tell me is that 'SOME' attorney made a mistake. Once when the well was placed in my family name and they paid out the money; Now by telling me the same attorney made another mistake and the money does not belong to my family. This is horrible. After looking into this, I understand that the state stands behind the operator and they only have to go back 3 years. I can't tell you how this hurts to know that 54 years ago my family deserved what was rightfully theirs, but never saw a penny from these wells. Mistakes happen, but how many times can a company use that excuse? My family was very poor and did without, while the money was being given to someone else that never had to pay back a penny. Then when the company did pay, they were wrong again, and want most of it back. Not concerned about the tax problems all of this has caused. My family never saw a penny, but because of this company, they are telling me that I have to pay this back which in the end, I will never see another check from this in my lifetime. By the time they start sending checks again, I will not be alive. All of this is just wrong. What can I do?

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 |
