I'VE HEARD THAT SHELL OIL LANDMEN ARE THE EASIEST AND BET TO WORK WITH ON LEASES. DOES ANYONE KNOW A LANDMAN FROM THIS COMPANY, AND HOW TO GET IN CONTACT WITH THEM?
ANY INFO WIL BE APPRECIATED. SEC 32 T19N R16W BLANCHARD LOUISIANA
I also am leased with Shell through Coastal Land Services.
I received a good deal with them but not the top.
The landman was easy to work and negotiate with.
Have not had direct dealing with Shell yet though.
From what I am told though they are less likely to run roughshod over your land though.
They are also more conservative with their money so I doubt they will be leasing land they do not intend to use. Thus the slow pace.
As they are a foreign owned company, they also may not need to tighten their budget as much due to financial shortfalls caused by the current US financial/investment market meltdown.
