Beth,

      I assume you are in PA. 

Call the PA Attorney Generals Office Since your AG has filed criminal charges against CHK. It wouldn't hurt if you filed your own complaint to the PA AGs Office.

Below is the website with the help line phone numbers. Ask for directions from them.

I filed with the Ohio Attorney Generals Office and notified the Governor that I had filed a complaint.

I have a good format for filing a complaint:

1) How much you were shorted compared to the production reported to your state authority(ODNR for me)

2) NGLs estimated vs what is on your Royalty Statement. You can estimate NGLs by multiplying the Natural Gas MCF units on your statement by 2.25 and you'll get the number of gallons that should have resulted from each unit of Natural Gas processed.

3) Taxes, if you live in Ohio the NGLs are not taxed but some producers are taxing them.

Don't talk about your lease or you will be told to contact a lawyer. Talk about the theft that occurred at the Well for instance Buck 1H.

I have more info but I'm waiting to hear if I've pissed off people at high places. You never know who is willing to take in Political Action Committee money (personal slush fund) from an energy company or oil & gas company.

Rut Row, if you are in PA.

Ron,

I spoke with Jeff this evening and he mentioned you were probably going to move forward.

We did here about a couple of instances of disputes between land owners and CHK back when we were working on the Escrow of the first ALOV signing with CHK.

One that stood out was CHK dragged the fight out so long with delays that the land owner ran out of money to fight with.

Also, after the first signing CHK brought in a staff member to fill the position of Government Liaison and stationed them in Columbus Ohio.  CHK did a great deal of lobbying starting back in 2011 and continuing forward to present day.

Governor Kasich has been heavily lobbied by CHK for some time now.

Do you know if there are other land owners who are included in the well with you that have experienced the same problem?

If so, you should try to reach out to them.  If CHK shorted the money they owe you then they probably did it to the rest of the land owners who are part of you well.
