OK, Chatham Twp is in northwest TC.  Looking at recent production and permits spreadsheets available from the PADEP website, SWEPI is "the only game in town".

Chatam twp I believe is the area

As you probably know, Shell bought East Resources' holdings ,,, which did not include any DCNR (state forest) leases. So SWEPI does not control much of the thicker shale in TC. Now if your friends have land around Covington of east or south of there and they want to lease it, they should contact the companies operating in that area. Time and more production numbers will tell if SWEPI's offer is "fair" for the rest of TC.  I'm sure some will disagree with me, but given the glut of dry gas and the state of the economy, I think SWEPI's offer is reasonable.

Ann do you think this is a fai offer

Nate:  The standard TC offer from SWEPI (Shell) has been $2,000/15%/5years for a year or so.  Long Consulting, a hold-over from East, does their leasing.

Josie, thanks for the contact. I actually work in the oil & gas business and am well versed in termanology myself, though being from Ohio I wasn't sure what the dollars per acre and royalty rates were. If you have those numbers it would help me greatly.

 

Thanks,

 

Nate

Hi, I have friends who were contacted about their land in Tioga county. If anyone could give me the latest offers I would greatly appreciate it.

 

The person who contacted them was an independent landman from Shell I believe.

 

Thanks for your help in advance.

The huge pipeline just south of sabinsville has come to a standstill for a few days due to too wet soil conditions, My wife and I drove up the Grimes hill road a few days ago just to see where the pipeline crossed the hills. We were amazed to see up close just how large in diameter the pipe itself is. Looks to be nearly 30 inches in diameter. Foe a few weeks now we have been watching the process of digging the ditch as it drops into the "long run" creek area, and crosses route 349. It is very steep on both sides. Must have been pretty tricky digging on such a very steep incline! The pipe has been been deposited along the trench and looks to be almost ready to weld together and dropped into its trench.

In the Tioga news headline,"Fatal Crash in Tioga County, Pa-WETM-TV has a special meaning to me.

 

The fatality was the half sister of a very special young classmate of my daughter's.  This young classmate was afficted with a heart problem known commonly as "a hole in the heart."  Through the efforts that I made those many years ago this youngster was able to survive some years longer then was expected.

 

Very few people ever knew the complete story of how this unfortunate youngster came in contact with a heart specialist. This all took place about 1966.  The youngster's name was Sherrie Harris from Westfield.

What should have come with the declaration, Betty Jean, is a list of all parties in the pool, their respective percentages of ownership, and the map.  Obviously the gas company didn't send it or you wouldn't have asked the question.  So, I would either contact the gas company for those two pieces of information or from the county recorder.  The instrument number for the recorder would be on the front page.
