Bienville Parish lease offer

Anyone else been approached by Teche Exploration for leasing?  I have received an offer in the mail for $200 an acre with a 1/5 royalty.  I ignored it for a few days and they then called me to up the offer to $250 an acre.  We actually have two tracts of land.  He approached me on our land (20 acres) in Section 18-T14N-R7W.  Our property is off of Punkin Center Road and sides a Natural gas pipeline that has been there forever.  Anyone else hearing anything?   Skip Peele asked me to share this info with other Bienville Parish landowners.  Our land has not been leased in years so this offer came out of left field. Hopefully, its a sign that something may be happening in that part of the Parish!

      PRE-APPLICATION NOTICE T14N  R06W BIENVILLE PARISH

      My brother and i recieved this notice in late January from Magnetar Exploration. It includes sections 27 - 34. They intend to drill between 10,670 and 12,495 feet in the Cotton Valley formation. Does any else have any information on this project?

      Hi Skip

      I got an update on Teche.  They floated the idea of having a 1/5 royalty at first and after production happens then going to 1/4 on the royalties.
