re: Haynesville Shale
Posted by Mythical on 7/13/08 at 2:36 am to pittboss33
My family has 83 acres south of Castor, Louisiana in Bienville parish. It's about 4 miles from both Red River and Natchitoches parish. We heard someone in Martin was getting 8k per acre, and that's only 6-7 miles away from our property.
I've called and e-mailed all the gas companies I could find and asked if they'd be interested in leasing. The only one that got back in touch with me was Cheasapeake. They said the area was only about $600 per acre to lease.. and that others around us were getting less. But other people in the area have said they already had leases before the Shale came into play and now Cheasapeake has bought there already existing leases.. and some of these people had leased for $100 an acre, etc.. Should my land be in the 8k range to lease or was the landman being honest?
