Today Carrizo Oil & Gas announced that it is entering the Utica Shale Play by way of a Joint Venture with Avista Capital Partners. There are 15,000 acres involved and Carrizo is paying $1,500 per acre for ONLY 10% interest. You do the math. What would the value per acre be for 100% interest?

They own 5% of Gulfport's leases, and expect increased cash flow from oil and gas operations. Dig through the report and you will see a good summary of Gulfport's wells. See the link....

Joseph, Many of the leases being sold were signed in the 2008/2010 time frame. Most were 5 yr primary terms with a 5 yr option to re-new (with payment of another bonus). A lot of the leases are scattered, making it difficult to construct large drilling units. Chesapeake will never drill on most of these leases and will not pay to re-new. So, they are trying to sell to companies that can bolt-on the leases to their core leased areas of operations. Chesapeake and their JV partner Stat Oil need to get some cash from these leases rather than just writing them off at a total loss. I doubt if anyone other than Aubrey (1 1/2%) founders override will maintain an interest.

AboutWhat makes this site so great? Well, I think it's the fact that, quite frankly, we all have a lot at stake in this thing they call shale. But beyond that, this site is made up of individuals who have worked hard for that little yard we call home. Or, that farm on which blood, sweat and tears have fallen. [ Read More ] |
