The Times' article “Insiders Sound Alarm Amid a Natural Gas Rush,” does not reflect the IHS position on shale gas.

 

Emails referenced in the article were written in 2008 and 2009, early in the understanding of the performance metrics for shale gas and have been proven completely wrong by events. One of the emails that was referenced in the article as from IHS was apparently written by someone misidentified as an IHS employee when in fact that person…

This is happening on Wednesday (25th) from 1-3pm. They typically have a video feed online, so check back on Wednesday. Hopefully, they will get into something of substance instead of just an "is-not & is-too" argument. The panel looks tilted in one direction. What do you think?

Pre-Expo Tour

Prior to the official start of the 2011 ACT Expo I had an opportunity to go on a group tour of two natural gas refueling stations. The first stop was at a CNG refueling station built and operated by Clean Energy to service a large fleet of Republic waste haulers. The station is laid out in a large parking area so up to 100 trucks can be fueled overnight in what is known as a slow-fill operation.…

Over the last couple years, I have sent you content updates on some of the more popular discussion s on GoHaynesvilleShale.com. Early in the development of the Haynesville play, I believe these were especially useful as things were evolving by the day. Hopefully you found these updates useful. However, as GHS evolved, I started rethinking…

For decades energy companies have been awash in paper, with the desks of engineers and accountants piled high with invoices, field tickets, and purchase orders. As these companies have grown, so has the number and size…

From today's energy sepeech by President Obama at Georgetown. I came in on this late, so your thoughts are welcome. Very lukewarm on his endorsement of natural gas. Ignored the promise of shale oil. More attacks on the oil industry... Generally shows a lack of handle on the subject matter.

- Energy Secretary Chu will work with Natural Gas companies to improve the safety of shale gas drilling.

- The potential for natural gas is enormous with broad bi-partisan…

A couple weeks ago, I asked a couple questions of you. Thought I’d post a couple responses. Reminder. I asked, “How long has your family owned the land in Louisiana? 2) When did you lease? 3) What’s been your experience? 3) Any concerns for the environment? 4) Why did you join GHS? 5) What has been the biggest change for you?” A few of you responded. I posted a couple of the responses below.

Using the latest technologies in mapping and 3D modeling, Wright Water is building the most comprehensive and real-time…

I wanted to let Texas royalty owners know the importance of educating yourself about what your rights are as mineral owners.  Your rights can be taken away if you are not proactive to protect them.  I've attached an article I co-authored almost two years ago discussing how the Texas Court system has eroded royalty owner rights over the past 12 years via a draconian application of applicable statutes of limitations. (Limitations are known as "prescription periods" in Louisiana, and the need…
