The Gas Company Wants to Modify or Amend My Existing Gas Lease: What Should I Do?

Posted on October 31, 2012 at 2:00am 2 Comments

Many oil and gas leases throughout Pennsylvania are on the verge of expiring due to the gas companies’ inability to “hold” the property under the lease terms.  Gas companies holding expiring leases are often approaching landowners and seeking an “extension” of the expiring Oil and Gas Lease.  These extensions typically range from six (6) months to two (2) years, but can be for much longer.
