[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 589162, member: 3162"] Get an attorney you can trust. Make sure it is one who knows the petro business. The landmen can be like used car salesmen, stroke your ego, do everything under the sun to pressure you. Take your time. Believe me, you'll do good to get the well in within the 3 year limit as is. The time pressure is simply aimed at getting you to sign. Things will be negotiated. Get all you can. They want you to take the least possible. You probably know more than your neighbors did who already signed. Most of us who have been down the road simply know enough to know we don't know enough. I have told more than one landman to pound sand. If one tries to play me as a fool, we're done - forever. As far as the land goes, print satellite pics of it now. Some companies are great. Some aren't. I've been called a liar when it came to pre-existing fencing. A satellite photo shows who's telling the truth. Some companies leave it in better condition that it was. [/QUOTE]
