The Lease Extenders show. How do the gas companies attempt to word their proposed leases in such a way as to hold your property under lease, and try to renew for below market rates, even in booming productive areas? Doug examines these very clever techniques that gas company lawyers try to pass off on Pennsylvanians. Then, Doug comes up with powerful techniques to defuse these clever tactics, and bring the balanace of power back to the middle. Our goal is to obtain the fairest, highest quality lease terms and conditions for Pennsylvanians. The gas companies are already rich enough, and our state's Marcellus and Utica shale gas/oil/NGL energy is a $1.75 trillion dollar Pennsylvania resource, the financial proceeds of which should be shared fairly with our Pennsylvania property owners - most of whom've been waiting patiently, for several generations, for the necessary natural gas production technology to be developed.

And Parol Evidence rules- these are what control any verbal side agreement to your written gas lease or pipeline agreement. Conflict of interest: How some landmen pretend to act as your lawyer- even claiming to fight for your interest- while indeed acting as a double-agent, betraying your interest, and instead operating in the best interest of the gas company- their true client and true interest they're fighting for- to the great harm of the landowner- who has usually sacrificed quite a lot more than $100,000 in bonus, royalty and land protections.
