From the General Counsel

September 6, 2012 by PBOG

It Pays to Look Closely Property owners—or prospective owners—take heed: just because your county’s records do not show a lease as binding on your property does not mean that such a filing does not exist in an adjacent county. A not-often-relied-upon property code provision recently became the bane of one surface owner’s use of its […]

Doug Robison, Chairman, PBPA

Nothing “Lesser” about the LPC Challenge Experience could serve the PBPA well as we transition from the Dunes Sagebrush Lizard dustup to the Lesser Prairie Chicken skirmish. Well, here we go again! The ink is barely dry on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Department’s ruling on the Dunes Sagebrush Lizard and the Permian Basin Petroleum […]

George P. Mitchell, who in the 1990s as the wildcatting boss of Mitchell Energy and Development pioneered hydraulic fracturing, favors more government regulation of fracking. “The administration is trying to tighten controls,” he told Forbes. “I think it’s a good idea. They should have very strict controls. The Department of Energy should do it.” Mitchell […]

Quietly Making Noise

August 3, 2012 by PBOG

Down that Blue Highway by Jesse Mullins It’s a “three calendar” cafe here in Snyder, this place on 25th called Dee’s, where oilfield hands are getting an early lunch, where a guy can have chorizo-and-potato burritos and wash them down with a Sidral Mundet. And no, that’s not hooch—that’s a bottled soft drink. Snyder. Hometown […]

Pull! ~ Clay Shoot Pit Challenge

August 3, 2012 by PBOG

They Came Out Smoking It was Napoleon who said that “an army travels on its stomach.” If the army that descended on Windwalker Farms ever were pressed into duty on the field of battle, not only would it be formidable—with 300 under arms, and a high incidence of marksmen—but it’d be well-fed, too, with a […]

The Booming Business of Worker Accommodations

August 3, 2012 by PBOG

Living Large, Temporary Style It goes by a number of names: temporary housing, workforce housing, “man camps,” lodges, worker accommodations—but by whatever name, these developments are making an impact in the Permian, as they have in all booming oil and gas plays. ODESSA—It’s quiet here in the dining hall of Goliath Industries’ pristine, barely completed […]

Pushing the Frontier at Pioneer

August 3, 2012 by PBOG

Pioneering Spirit The President and CEO of Pioneer Natural Resources, Scott Sheffield, combines a global perspective with West Texas savvy to help fuel a resurgence in the Basin.

Across the United States, there’s “a growing understanding of how to use the technology to get at the resources.” Domestic crude oil production in the U.S. averaged more than six million bbl/d for the first quarter of 2012 for the first time since 1998. The U.S. Energy Information Administration attributed the milestone to growth of […]

From the General Counsel

August 3, 2012 by PBOG

Accommodating the Accommodation Doctrine How the surface estate may be used—more specifically, whether a surface owner is incommoded by a mineral owner’s uses of that surface estate—is a question that the Texas Supreme Court is being called upon to answer. Recently the Texas Supreme Court was asked to clarify what a surface owner is required […]

Ben Shepperd

Questions of whether certain information must be shared or not are at the forefront of much debate within the industry. The Texas House Energy and Natural Resources Committees both met in late June to discuss Interim charges. These Interim hearings will guide the development of legislation we will see in the 2013 legislative session. A […]
