Leasing occurs. O&G companies lease
the right to produce these lands. The O&G owner is the typically the same
person who owns the surface property, but not always. In some cases, these
rights have been severed. There are ways to determine if you are the owner if
these rights. There are also some reasons that you might consider severing the
oil and gas rights from your surface property.

Today’s episode
covers the Marcellus and Utica Shale formations. Our guest is Joe Baran from
Bertison George. I’ve worked with Joe for
the past few years. He has provided the
oil and gas valuations for most of my shale estate planning and probate clients.
He provides a lot of interesting information and insights into the industry, including
market pricing, infrastructure development, and some of the secondary economic
benefits of the industry coming to our area. We focus most of our attention on
Pennsylvania and Ohio which is fitting since we recorded a few days before the
election. The oil and gas industry has also
focused their attention here with slightly less interest in WVA, and New York State
for a few reasons which we touch on briefly.
