[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 1183989, member: 3162"] My perspective is a bit different Brute. The only good thing is mail box money. That comes from dealing with the biggest companies and the smallest of companies. A whole lot of trash and refuse comes with well pads. Dumpsters don't get dumped and the trash blows all through your property. Cattle guards are fine. Except when you need to drive cattle up YOUR lane. They don't understand. They use contractors to build pads. When they turn around the big rigs and get into your fence, they don't tell anyone. They use contractors to replace the fences after the pipelines are done. They use substandard wire and the cheapest materials they can find. Wire so weak a bird landing on it can almost break it. I didn't know anyone made gates so light that new born calves bend them. But they do. And that's the ones the contractors will use Water trucks run to the well pad from now on. All the trash, bottles, and refuse they throw out the window happens when they get off the main roads. 12 wells are off of my lane. I could fill up a sack daily. Again it is not the company itself but rather their contractors. I could go on and on. We are never considered customers. We are stakeholders. Land men know what the compnay rates are. If they can give you 20% and keep 8% for themselves, they'll do it every time. It is best to go straight to the company itself. [/QUOTE]
