Thanks for setting this group up. Hopefully the residents of Ashtabula will utilize the information they receive from this group in order to make an informed decision. Incidently, I received a voicemail yesterday from Buckeye Mineral in response to a question I had. I told them I wanted confidence that they would be forming a group in Ashtabula and leasing within a year.......before I told others about their group. They told me that they "would definitely have a group started within a year" and it is "perfectly OK to tell others about them and their lease". They also said they do not know whether the group will be through them or perhaps through a separate landowner group that they will represent.
I also spoke with a landman from a large driller and he advised me that when companies like Wishguard are in the area the "big players" are soon to follow. He said to be patient.
Another thing that could make Ashtabula appealing to drillers is the potential for utilizing their port(s) for the distribution of oil/gas......I don't know....just a thought.
