I'm a 24 year old one semester away from a Biology degree, not your typical oil and gas researcher. However, I grew up with a grandfather working extensively in the oil field services area, and my uncles were destined to follow. I attended UL in Lafayette, and was introduced to the off shore drilling aspect, and was also made familiar with the business and investment portion of the industry. I was born and raised in the Haughton area, with my family dispursed over Bossier, DeSoto, and Union…

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 |

Keep all of us posted on your adventures. I like it.
Just caught your blog and find in entertaining. I am glad to see a young person interested in the business. I have been doing this for 17 years and was one of very few young landmen in the early '90s.
You will learn a lot poking around like you are but you should try to intern with a landman for a couple weeks and help them lease, run records or whatever to get some hands on. It may be tough to break in with the intensity of the activity in N LA but if you’re upfront with your objectives you should be able to find someone that will help you.
I was working up there in the start of the frenzy in 2008 and it was a great experience. I am a in-house landman but started in the business doing field work. I have never looked back on picking the career path and have not only learned about the oil and gas business but it opens your eyes to all types of business circumstances and objectives. There are two stories to every deal and each party tries to make the best deal they can. The industry gets a bad rap (some deserved) but overall it is a hard working group of individuals that keep it moving and the climate is always changing. Either with a new play, land owner relations, oil and gas prices or government regulation, there always seems to be something that the industry has to adapt to. That is also what makes the business so enjoyable, it is ever changing and you are always learning.
Keep it up and happy to answer questions.
I am 46 years old and own land in Union Parish. It is family land in 3 townships. I live in Houston. I read your blog. We have alot in common. I was born in Shreveport...my Dad lives there, my Uncle lives in Monroe. My daughter will be a freshman at LSU this fall semester, she is interested in engineering. I too am a newby in the shale business. I would love to chat with you more.
