No there haven't been any problems. We received our check and alot of our neighbors have too. I asked the bank if there were any problems and they said all the checks they received from Rex Energy cleared without incident.
I'm a little concerned because my neighbor across the street (who also joined SURE but in June) who signed with Rex Energy was turned down by Rex because "they were not part of SURE Group A and not in an area of interest".
I joined SURE during the meeting at the High School Gym in May but was unable to sign at the June signing at the Fair grounds because I was out of town for work.
We signed the lease agreement 3 weeks ago (delay was from Rex side, not ours) but I'm not sure where things stand.
Does anyone know anything about the North Coast Energy collection pipeline that passes through Union Township E-W just South of Canyon Road? It passes through our property based on an older easement. It was put in in 2003. I'm curious about whether it has unused capacity, etc. NorthCoast was purchased by Exco I believe.
Also, was contacted by representatives of Chesapeake recently to see if they could have someone walk our property and flag for a pipeline - I told them we would not allow any of their people go on our property unless/until there was an agreement for an easement. From the sounds of it, this pipeline will be North-South. They were talking about coming from the Alamo road side (We front on Pebble).
Does anyone know where the next dozen or so well sites will be in carroll county and why such a mystery. Most companies can tell you when where and how for at least the next five years.
Being a newcomer to this site, I've enjoyed the various discussion forums and insights from the participating members. I'd like to echo the interest of the previous comment. When this all began for us, we were informed that Rex Energy (whom we signed with) would have a designated "Warrior Prospect" page available on their website. Nothing yet...if anyone from Rex sees this...we in Carroll County would truly appreciate any tidbits of information that you could toss us. I understand that it is still very early in the game...and quite possibly (purely my own speculation) Rex and Chesapeake are in the process of sorting out future unit placements between the two...but, it seems that there is so much information flowing regarding many of the other counties in Ohio...and very little regarding Carroll. My hopes here are to hear more regarding this county. Any information would be greatly appreciated...Thank you in advance!
to Mike on the pipeline issue we have had national fuel install a pipeline on our property, they own Seneca and we are from Pa. These people are great to work with. You will not get an easement just for them walking your ground, but I would want it in writing when they will be performing that taskwithin a 2 week window, you don't want a bunch of people walking around your property for months. These guys are just checking out the lay of the land it see if it is feasible to run a pipeline. Becareful of Chesapeake and their contracts
@Karen, I wasn't concerend that they would get an easement just walking around, I just don't see a need for random people I don't have a business arrangement with walking around our place. If they are serious then they will sit down to talk about an easement. If they are just walking around "kicking the tires" then I'm not interested.
could anyone tell me how long it was from the time that wishgard started showing up to the time some of you got a deal with a land owner group? ballbark. thanks :)
Forum on tax, legal, estate and investment implications of oil & gas leases. Free and open to the public - Saturday February 25, 2012 at 10 am at St John's Villa - The Gathering Room 701 Crest Street, Carrollton, Ohio. Brief presentations and open for questions and answers.
Speakers include:
Dave Groves, Tax Partner and Dave Supelak, Sr. Tax Manager of Bruner-Cox LLP, Canton, Ohio
Chesapeake has approached me last week, we have a small amount of acreage in Carroll County (16 Acres). They're requesting to to amend the current contract we signed with Eric Petroleum as unit size is not accomadating to their drilling unit of 1000+ acres. Our contract states that our property cannot be included in a unit that exceeds 800 acres, I inquired about amending the royalty percentage as well to my best interest since I know my neighbors is slightly higher. They are not willing to negotiate. Comtemplating on signing the amendment. But I don't want to cut my nose off to spite my face.
Hi Babs---unless you are willing to seek legal advise as to getting out of your old contract and renogating a new one-pricey---I'd just want to try to get acres down to 650---if not-----I'd say go ahead and sign---that's just me---just sayin'.
It's my understanding the more acres in the unit, the more wells to be drilled (6 total). Chesapeake advises they want 1000 units to allow for 6 wells. My initial thinking was, I'd sign the amendment if they were willing to negotiate the royalty %. I'd say for someone with 100+ acres they would have more leverage than my 16.2 acres. Thanks for the input.
1) Consider starting a "Discussion Thread" instead of "Commenting on the Wall". Click on the "+ Add a Discussion" link just above the "Comment Wall" text and start a new Thread. It will be much easier for every to follow, reply and review especially in the future.
2) Maybe, require the driller agree to drill all 6 wells within a 24 month period, if they require you increase to 1,000 Acre PU. You don't want them to drill 1 well and then Hold all 1,000 acres by Production for next 10 years.
I wonder how many acres they are talking? With Oil and Gas leases going higher than $5000 per acre and flat out land sales with mineral rights through the roof I think something is amiss on this. If one scout camp was to lease and have full royalty of the well at 20% they could just about build a real cushy camp site hot tubes included!
We are in the process of estate planning. One of the first steps is to get the mineral rights evaluated. Are there any appraisers qualified to appraise mineral rights for estate planning? Any information would be helpful.
Oscar, we had some land in WV appraised for mineral rights value. The company is hartpetro global. Phone 304-345-3244.it took 1month and cost $5000 for 122 acres. If you want more info you can email me gallentine@roadrunner.com. Hope this helps. Denver
i am getting conserned about my water now not from fracking but from people selling water wrights . it is happening around me . gas companies are drilling water wells now and that is damn well going to lower our water table for sure . wake up people we lived with out oil and gas but sure as hell cant live without water . fracking has nothing to do with this matter. think about it. thanks
Hello all, I have been a member of this site for quite a while, and have noticed there are a lot of people who are looking for an attorney, or law firm, that can actually help them with complex issues related to everything oil and gas, but especially regarding mineral ownership and leasing. I wanted to let anyone who is interested know that I can put them in touch with a law firm who specializes in oil and gas in the Marcellus and Utica Shale plays. This firm has helped people in WV and OH alike, if you are interested feel free to message me for their info. Hope this can help some people out there with the issues they may be having.
Production reports have been released on the Sturat Henderson,Houyouse and the White wells in Lee Twp. Very impressive on all 3. These are posted MarcellusShale.com web site
@ Rose Paratto - I do believe for seismic testing. Today 2/10 they were actively testing in Monroe Township, they were working on rt. 39 and had the road down to one lane.
Oscar A Addis Jr.
Does anyone have any update on the Augusta well?
They are laying pipe to the gas line and I do not know if they have even fracked yet.

Bill H. - If CHK or anyone associated with O&G is drilling wells to draw water from the ground for their industrial purposes they MUST!
Apply for Ohio EPA permit.
I agree with you and will fight any attempt to draw ground water above the Big Injun.
Ohio EPA MUST post a notice in the local paper requesting citizen response.
I haven't noticed any such legal, but then, again, I don't always read the FPS.
