Great info and guidance! How can I find out which tracts that EOG has in Nac area and what prices they paid per acre? This would give me some knowledge what their $$ should be per acre, right??

Thanks Mike. Great information...can't wait to read the whole doc. We are 5 miles east of Nacogdoches (1/5th of 336 acres) and got a call from EOG landman yesterday regarding our ownership interest. No offers or suggestion of offers (and I didn't ask) she just needed to verify information. I guess it's coming our way. :)

ELAINE-LOOKS LIKE YOU HAD LEASED TO CHESAPEAKE BEFORE--EOG APPEARS TO BE LEASING MUCH OF WHAT CHESAPEAKE HAD--DO NOT BE BULLIED AND REVIEW OTHER POSTINGS FOR CURRENT TERMS AND depth restrictions. $275/acre is too low

Elaine, in Nac I would call Atty Bill McWorter (if he's still practicing law) if not him then an Atty that handles O&G leases. Let'em try to bully McWorter lol

I know Rebecca as well....she's handling a death estate for us. Thanks much.

You are so right about Bill! Yes, he's still practicing. I think I might call EOG and ask them to mail me the contract and take it to Bill to read. But, does anyone think I should call the other gas companies in the area to see if they are interested in this track of land? I was supposed to call EOG today with an answer of the $275 and 3/16 royalty.

Elaine does not look like anyone else leasing in survey 662 but EOG

RBH, If her land is in A-662, Petrohawk has a James Lime well that bottoms in the NW corner of A-662. Mr. Johnstons (EOG) Travis Peak well is to the west in J. Walling, A-588 and EOG has another Travis Peak vertical to the south in J. Walling, A-588.

Elaine, If the offer of 275.00 & 3/16 is an initial offer ask for the lease and take all the time you need to decide what to do. Take it to a good lawyer and let him/her advise you. What you don't want to do is hurry. You should be able to get a better bonus and you need to be stubborn about a higher royalty. At least 20% but ask for 25% and you can work down from there if you have to.

Thanks much for all the info. I'll call them today and get the contract and take it to Bill McWhorter or Rebecca to let them read all the legal jargin. Again, thanks to all.
