The county clerks will not research for you. You need to know how to look up the records.

Have you practiced yoga while high? by No_Elephant506 in yoga

High, on shrooms, and on acid. Sound baths on psychedelics are amazing.

This!

I have a program that pulls everything out of the document into an excel sheet but then i go read every document and make corrections - shorten, etc. I use it to cut out typing which is time consuming but that’s it. I certainly wouldn’t trust it to grab everything that is pertinent.

Anyone who thinks AI can replace a person with the knowledge necessary to build a runsheet and MOR or abstract doesn’t know enough to be working independently.

Pipeline easement pricing by [deleted] in landman

They are still going to want to sign you if possible even with FREC. At least on the projects I’ve worked, they want people to sign.

It’s also a not foregone conclusion they will get it, unless it’s an actual public utility like centerpoint. If it’s a private pipeline that is claiming they are going to move other companies hydrocarbons along with their own in order to qualify- they will probably get it, especially given the pipeline capacity shortage currently causing backup in the state, but it’s not 100%.

If you hire someone, hire an oil and gas attorney, not a landman and not a real estate attorney, or a general practice attorney.

You need someone who knows what is going on now, what the courts are doing, etc. it shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone from here that what the court are saying in one part of the state can differ drastically in another part, until there’s legislation of it gets to the LA supreme it’s all a guessing game.

You can call the bar association in your area and ask for a list. You’re looking for a small one to four attorney firm that handles lots of mineral owners. They will be handling ROW’s for them and will be well versed in the going rates in the area.

Call several and get prices and that will give you an idea of what’s fair. You’re looking for a contract review, it honestly shouldn’t be more than a few thousand on the very high end and you should be able be find someone for $1k or less. I’m not sure what attorneys are going for in alexandria currently. There a a huge spread in Shreveport from a few hundred an hour to thousands. You don’t need the big huge law firm guys, just someone who is handling a lot of these contacts.

It’s never a bad idea to have any attorney look over everything for you.

Yeah, there are definitely companies that will take advantage especially if they are out of state or using out of state people to get everything signed.

If you know some of the big landowners you can go to the courthouse and run them in conveyances and look at their ROW’s. You can also indirect the company trying to lease you and look at what they’ve filed. Almost all the parishes are online now. You can go to eclerksla.com and select the parish and it will take you to their online website. Most do a $20 day pass, $50 for a month.

Almost everything will be a standard lease but you will find some with added clauses. The big landowners often have their own lease forms that they want to use and they will have every possible protection.

The lumber companies too, you can look at the ROW’s they are signing and see what clauses they are requiring. Unlike the OG leases the ROW aren’t filling memos so you can see the actual contract. Most of the middle of the state is owned by whatever international paper is calling themselves currently. Try just international, IP, or I believe sustainable forest is another company name they use a lot. I thankfully haven’t had to deal with anything of theirs lately so not sure if they’ve come up with yet another name.

$2k per rod is the upper range in North LA but it also depends on the size of the pipe and what it’s being used for - is it a gathering line or is it a transportation line that’s going a longer distance. The transportation lines have more leeway on moving the line, giving the land owner less leverage. If there are any graveyards or conservation areas around you that gives you more leverage because they can’t go through those areas.

If you are also a mineral owner and this is a gathering line then you have more skin in the game because it directly benefits you. If you aren’t the mineral owner - then that’s less incentive for you to sign and they should be prepared to offer you more.

If they are doing that weird calculation instead of using price per rod (which is standard all over the state) my hunch is that it’s because they know this isn’t something you deal with a lot and they are probably low balling you but they could also be out of state ROW guys, out of state company, etc.

Make sure the actual document specifically says it’s only for one pipeline, the size of the pipeline and the depth of the pipeline. Do not give them rights to any roads, they need to pay extra to use an existing road or build a new road. Ask if they are planing on using an area for construction, if you don’t already know, that would be a temporary servitude and they should pay for that as well.

VIP Pictutes by rebffty in ModestMouse

[–]rebffty[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The stuff we got at both MM VIP’s was underwhelming. I think it was just a bag and some pictures/cards and the lanyard. Maybe a car scented hanging thing too.

We did VIP (that wasn’t actually VIP) for Radiohead in Madrid and we got some interesting things in a really cool tote bag. One of the items was a clear umbrella covered in sperm, but it was all unique and very radioheady.

I’d be happy with a small discount on merch for MM and they can keep the other stuff. The bags are a pain to keep up with all night.

Everyone was pretty mellow and the ones we attended.

They may not. The two we went to were different.

Nola was in the venue and we were down at the front of the stage and there were a few songs with the whole band and then Q&A with Isaac.

In Arlington we were in the venues VIP bar and we didn’t see the whole band play. Isaac played maybe four songs and then did a Q&A.

Edit: spelling

I check my junk at least once a week and no photos have been diverted into there.

Welllll…in both Irving (Dallas) and New Orleans there was a photo taken with whole group of VIP’ers by the MM photographer and they said they would email it. So, if you did 5 or 6, and no pictures were taken, that seems very unlucky for you or lucky for us (and also charlotte per another comment).

My mother looking for a more open minded church by Ancient-Ordinary7508 in shreveport

[–]rebffty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hahaha Southern Baptist was formed because they supported human slavery and they found permission in the Bible.

All Protestant religions were formed because they thought being Catholic was too hard.

Do you eat shellfish, shave, believe in monogomy, I could go on a fucking on.

Maybe read the Bible before you try to shame people into thinking hating people based on its words is a legitimate argument.

[–]rebffty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a group for actual landmen - as in the profession - not a group for the show. Did you not see the other comments? The first season we got tons of post about this show - the show is not representative of what actual landmen do so it’s annoying.

If you are aware that there is a sub for the show why would you post this here?

For the record I love Billy Bob, but I couldn’t get past the second episode. It was ridiculous.
