Morgan County, Ohio

For the exchange of information on the gas and oil play in Morgan County.  Did any one else realize that MoCo is the Spanish word for 'snot'?

AEP land

Here's a thought:  Doesn't AEP own like 60,000 acres in Eastern Morgan Co?  One would assume they own the minerals.  Won't they do quite well if the oil/gas play goes as well as we hope it does?

Should I by some of their stock?

 

Wonder if they will have to pay 40%+ income tax on their royalties?

    It's funny you say that Gary, I was thinking about all that AEP ground as well. The strip mines is a huge contiguous tract of ground, very appealing to drill on. I wonder though, if there is additional coal seams under the AEP ground they may be reluctant to allow a bunch of drilling. I know the coal companines are constantly battling O/G operators in WV for this very reason. Drilling disruptes long wall mining.

      Is AEP the same as Ohio Power Company?

      Are they drilling in Morgan County, yet?  Where?
