Encana has converted some drilling rigs to run on LNG and they say it saves about $500,000 in fuel per well. It also is much cleaner and will help boost demand for nat gas. All good so far.…Continue

Jim Litwinowicz replied to Dr. Larry A. Maxwell's discussion 'What Happens When Other Company Drills Across Our Land?' in the group Bradford County, PA"Dr Maxwell; keep in mind that if and when more wells are drilled in that unit, even wells that do not touch your property, you will get royalties from them also, based on the percentage of the unitized property that you own. You said you own 200…"
Jim Litwinowicz replied to Lance Nimmo's discussion 'Shell is backing out of leases in eastern Lawrence County'"I don't know if the ratio is ten to one but Shell is the dominate player. Don't forget that Chevron has a lot of acreage in northern Lawrence Co by way of the Atlas wells they bought a few years back. Probably more than Hilcorp."
Jim Litwinowicz replied to Lance Nimmo's discussion 'Shell is backing out of leases in eastern Lawrence County'"Your hilarious. You know whats on my desk better than I do. I'll put his card in my wallet, anyone wants to see it come to the meeting at the Stoneboro Fire Hall Thursday night at 6:30.

Jim Litwinowicz replied to Lance Nimmo's discussion 'Shell is backing out of leases in eastern Lawrence County'"Yeah, I still have his card here in my stack of stuff.
We have an audit clause to verify. Plus, if my neighbor that has a 15% royalty gets the same per acre as I get then I know they are screwing with me.
You certainly attempted to influence people…"
Jim Litwinowicz replied to Lance Nimmo's discussion 'Shell is backing out of leases in eastern Lawrence County'"Your right, we didn't get 18% with no deductions. We got 18.5% with no deductions.

Jim Litwinowicz replied to Lance Nimmo's discussion 'Shell is backing out of leases in eastern Lawrence County'"so you signed for less money, lower royalty, didn't get a counter-signed lease, have to wait to see if they actually pay it, less landowner addendum, but I'm the bad guy here."
Jim Litwinowicz replied to Lance Nimmo's discussion 'Shell is backing out of leases in eastern Lawrence County'"Let see, you have a lease that is signed by both parties and is notarized. The lease states that the only reason that the may not pay the bonus is if a title defect shows up during the title work. Sounds pretty binding to me.

CNBC on Nat Gas Conversion
All day today CNBC is focusing on converting vehicles to run on nat gas. Rick Sentelli is in Oklahoma at a company that does nat gas conversions. They are working on a pick up truck, showing what needs to be done to make it bi-fuel. By the end of the day, they will be driving around in the converted truck to show what it can do.
During one segment already aired, they said that if you fill up at home, you will pay an equivalent of 66 cents per gallon. Thats right.....66 cents per…

US vs OPEC
There is much talk and hope that all this shale oil and gas will get the US freed of dependance on OPEC oil. The Bakken, Eagle Ford, Utica and more have great oil potential. The Marcellus, Utica, Hainesville, Barnett and more have great gas potential, especially if we convert major portion of our transportation to natgas. All of these should help us wean ourselves off of foreign oil and gas, which would fantastic for the country.
But one problem with that scenario is competitive…

I did get the phone number from Ron - I will call later today to see what they have to say. I don't like how CHK is using sign in 2 days or you won't get a lease- CHK can't forget it...I don't need a lease that bad that takes advantage of our property and doesn't protect it. Thanks for letting me know how you feel about Hilcorp- anything else you can think of that I should make sure is in their lease? Does yours say 20% no deductions?

I am in Mahoning county, Beaver township. I am looking for a contact to call a Hilcorp rep to see what they have to offer. I heard that its $5000 per acre and 20% but I don't if its a landowner friendly lease or not.

Will continue to read your posts. Am hopeful that things will go well and that I can lease my property in 2012. Don't want to inject politics but appears taxes will be going up considerably in 2013. Will probably be worse if Obama is re-elected which I am afraid is going to happen. You might look for article on Chesapeake. Appears that their CEO may be doing something questionale if not illegal.

LandownerTracy said… I'm in Delaware Twp, and I signed in Oct., but then signed for the extension in Dec. Supposed to be paid by April 15th. My question is: I was under the impression that we would get some kind of services( tax planning, etc.) for the $250.00 fee. I know they are having meetings with FNB this week, but unfortunately, Tuesday evenings are already filled up for me. Are they going to offer additional meetings or was it a one time thing? If something goes wrong with the lease restrictions, would MOPAW represent this group or would we have to pay for their services again?
