<p>Is there a non-profit group that will assist a landowner group in writing a lease or a letter of demands that will protect our rights and the environment too? Most of our group had leases that have lapsed and now a different company has approached us with a "no surface disturbance lease". They have leased large areas surrounding us and seem to think we have no other options other than to lease with them. Signing bonus is low ,we think.

<p>Is there a non-profit group that will assist a landowner group in writing a lease or a letter of demands that will protect our rights and the environment too? Most of our group had leases that have lapsed and now a different company has approached us with a "no surface disturbance lease". They have leased large areas surrounding us and seem to think we have no other options other than to lease with them. Signing bonus is low ,we think. The lease they sent us seems hastily and haphazardly written. Also problems with royalty language and liability issues. Some of us are concerned, that once we sign and notarizre, there is no deadline or for them to sign or pay bonuses. My feeling in that case is that they could sit on the lase and sign years later Signing deadlines for our signing were mentioned, then changed, but both have passed.</p> Historic Failure – The only attorney led landowner group that signed Utica leases and NONE of the leases were paidtag:gomarcellusshale.com,2013-07-17:2274639:Topic:4740532013-07-17T19:46:29.158ZLandowner1https://gomarcellusshale.com/profile/Landowner1
<p>This is a cautionary story for all landowners considering joining a landowner group – Buyer beware. Just because the landowner group is attorney led does not guarantee that the landowners will be well represented.</p>

<p>This is a cautionary story for all landowners considering joining a landowner group – Buyer beware. Just because the landowner group is attorney led does not guarantee that the landowners will be well represented.</p>
<p>Southern Ohio Energy Consultants (SOEC) led by Attorney John Wells, along with three other partners of SOEC, pushed landowners in Washington County, Ohio to sign leases with DUX Petroleum LLC in mid February, 2013. <b><u>DUX did not pay any of the leases</u></b>.</p>
<p>Before the leases were signed members of gomarcellusshale.com (GMS) worked together to research DUX and discovered that DUX was a paper company with no assets, and was run by a 30 year old part time real estate agent with no apparent oil and gas experience out of a modest $95,000 single family house in a residential neighborhood in Lubbock, Texas. This (and more) publicly available information was available to anyone who did their due diligence and researched DUX. John Well’s partner, Tim Neal (posting on GMS as drillBABY) defended the DUX deal – making it impossible for SOEC to claim that they were unaware of the problems with DUX prior to the signing of the DUX leases.</p>

<p>Last year Southwestern Energy acquired many of the Fortuna/Talisman Friendsville Group leases. Recently, Southwestern has begun to send landowners proposed amendments to the leases. </p>
<p>On February 23, 2013 the Friendsville Amendment Study Committee held an initial organizational meeting to discuss the issues relating to the proposed amendments. </p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">CAUTION! If you were contacted recently by this fellow, I would proceed with great scrutiny. He may well of become the global guru of group shale O&G leasing in the last 12 months but a very short time ago he was only dabbling in the real estate field. I had the misfortune of Mr. Sneddon being sub-contracted by one of our main lending institutions. Can't be sure why, but in my opinion, Mr. Sneddon whether from laziness, incompetency or outright deception…</p>

I'm a landowner in Eastern Clearfield County, and I'm getting tired of the games being played by the Drillers and their Hired Help (Landmen). I've been looking for a landowner coalition in this area for some time now, but haven't found one. Does anyone know of one? If it looks like there is enough interest, I'd be willing to form a landowner coalition in this area. Anyone else? What say you?
