"Attorney involved for about a year now ($).  I simply want to find out, officially the answer to this simple question:  Can the neighbor own and get free gas from a domestic well if that well is on a narrow strip of land about 1/4 mile…"

Free gas question - can't seem to get a straight answer from DOGRM

Just suppose a person had a piece of ground on which is located a gas well.  Suppose that well is owned by an energy company.  Suppose that well is providing free gas to one home that is located on what is now a neighboring parcel, and no other gas.  Suppose the ODNR records show production of zero oil, zero gas, and zero brine for the past six years. Suppose this landowner is trying to terminate a lease written over 90 years ago.  Suppose the company owning the well has tacitly agreed that the…See More

"You need to get a Lawyer. The neighbor will get free gas no matter who owns the well, as I am sure it was written in the lease. Only way they don't get free gas is without a well. Do you know how much it. Will cost to cap this well? Maybe it…"

BMR replied to Rich Koehler's discussion 'Free gas question - can't seem to get a straight answer from DOGRM' in the group Ohio Landowners
"If you own the well, you can sell or give gas to whomever you want.  It sounds like the well needs to be classified by the State as Domestic (DM).  I believe the well owner can request the classification change to the State at any time."

Rich,

I just sent you a message. On the right side of the web page, toward the top should be a little box that is your personal message center. It shows Inbox, Alerts, Friends, and Settings.
