The End of the Black Lake Pettit Field Leases from the 1960's

I want to let everyone know that Chesapeake is granting releases to those who are holding the 50-year old leases from the Black Lake Field in Natchitoches Parish.  This field was leased in the 1960's and over 15,000 acres were leased at the time.  To get a release, contact Chesapeake, at 877-245-1427.  Good luck.

In my case, it took a couple of months, and a few phone calls, but they got it done.
