Where would be the best place to post this question. If you do not sign a lease due to unfair sign up bonuses and they force pool you, what are you opening yourself up to? Also if you do not sign and they drill a well, I asume you forfeit the lease bonus but you get 100% of your part of the well after company has paid for well expenses, right? I heard that oil company can put your royalties on hold for a long time. Thanks

I'll be happy to pitch in on occasion. I did listen to a talk by Ron Berman to the local SIPES group this week. He seems concerned about estimated shale decline curves and claims that he has examined 2,000 wells in the Fayetteville and Barnett plays. His conclusion is that reserves are being overstated and hence F&D costs are being understated. Is anybody blogging on that topic?

Hi Keith,
Just to let you know- the Office of Conservation will have a booth at the LOGA Gulf Coast Prospect and Shale Expo to be held at the Shreveport Convention Center on October 21-22, 2009. We will have a live internet feed and will be demonstrating the many capabilities of our SONRIS System and answering questions from attendees. I will be there also, so I hope to meet you and other shalers. Best regards.
Jim Welsh, Commissioner of Conservation

Hey Keith....
I am so sorry to be so tardy in getting back to you concerning your request concerning Celeste. I finally connected with Kathleen last week and she said for Celeste to call Yarborough's to make sure Jennifer is there, as she is the one of whom to speak. She said eventually Yarborough's will need someone, its just a matter of time. Kathleen will have knee surgury and will be out for sometime as well. That will be sometime this month. We have been gone so much, and for a while I couldn't reach Kathleen, but I had lunch with her and other friends last week and told her about Celeste. I hope I am not to late with the info and that it helps. Let me know if anything developes.
Regards.........

Keith: Thank You! Actually I Am an Archaeologist but Dropped in as the Grandson of Oskar N.Griffith of Shelby County, Texas. I only Found out that I was going to have the Joy of long lost Mineral Rights so I am just enjoying all
right now. My Mother was his Daughter, Alta R. Purcell so if there is related folks out there - lets hear from you.

I own the minerals on 375 acres at Montrose in Natchitoches Parish
Hwy 1 about 17 miles south of Natchitoches. There was a well drilled there about 15 years ago to 17,000 ft. How I can get the geology of the well and someone to look at it.

Im an investment broker for one of the many sellers of rights. He recieved 7mill for his fraction sell of rights. Im in Tennessee and have limited info. What price will gas need to be for activity to begin? BTW inform folks to take proceedes to buy Tax Free bonds....

I have a suggestion for the Arkansas Group page. Would it be possible to replace the map of the entire state with one that shows the SW corner of the state? One with a scale that would show counties and key towns?

Thank you so much for the work you do on this site and your commenting back to me! Is there a place on this site that explains salt water disposal needs of gas wells ? I am trying to determine what "establilshing and utilizing facilities for disposition of salt water" means for the long term.

Thanks

Keith have yall leased the deep rights on the 310 acre tract?

HI KEITH

Great site Keith.

Hi keith my name is Spanky Arsement I have signed on to your site. I own a machine shop in Lafayette La. and Pearland Tx. with a total of 60,000 sq. ft. of manufactoring space we specilize in downhole completion tools. My interest in this site is to obtain a list of service companies doing work in the area to contact and possibly earn work from them. Can you help or direct me? Thanks in advance.

Hello Keith. I've just signed up and am new to this game! Our family has owned property in Webster Parish just outside Minden for three generations. Since the older generation is dying out, we are now the ones who will have to negotiate with the oil companies making offers for oil/mineral leases. I'm not sure the previous leases were good offers since my generation was never part of the process.
Where can I get accurate information on the going lease and royalty rates for property in Webster Parish?
Thanks in advance for your help! This is a wonderful site!

happy birthday many more.
