Some New Info On Two (2) Unitization Orders In Ohio
http://www.oilandgaslawreport.com/2013/04/22/odnr-issues-two-more-u...
Take the link to a description found regarding two (2) new Unitization Orders (Forced Pooling Orders)
in Ohio.
I'm reading one (1) pertained to O & G Companies being force pooled and another involving O & G Companies as well as individual unleased landowners.
Looks like to me (in one instance) the unleased landowners received a bonus payment while the O & G Companies (in either instance) did not.
Check it out and discuss your interpretations.

Posted this to Trumbull County earlier. Bad deal for the O&G companies who are forced into the Lennington Unit. The second one was at least compensated with a little cash and a 15% royalty but that's still not a great look.

Interesting article. Does anyone know if someone with an old HBP lease can be force pooled into a unit for horizontal drilling?

Can't see how a contract can be invalidated by the ODNR and not a court that is extremely cautious in contractual matters.

It is a State law.....

Yes. The company that holds the lease can be compelled to add their land and participate in the well.

Wondering about forcing a well pad on your property ?
Pipelines ?
Roads ?
Storage ?
Timber ?
Crops ?
Waste Frac Fluid Injection Wells ?
Can any or all be forced on a Force Pooled Landowner without compensation ?

They're pooled into the unit and they're essentially given the lease that everyone else has.

Does that mean that if there are no restrictions on 'the lease everyone else has' and your acreage becomes part of the unit by becoming 'force pooled' that there would be no restrictions included pertaining to your acreage.
Sounds like it could become a bad situation.
We're looking for a 'Non Surface Development' type of leasehold agreement and 'no injection wells permitted' for our lands.
To have something else forced on your lands doesn't sound like it can be right / legal.
What's up with that ?

Joseph-Ohio, Thanks for posting this subject, it gives us more definitive insight as to what we can possibly face. I was not aware of some of these issues and some are hard to accept. I add this link, was not aware they can drill and do this.

What happens if a unitization order is issued, and some of the leased land has unit size restrictions below the ODNR approved unit?

I asked that same question yesterday. Haven't gotten an answer back.
