June 2012 Oil and Gas Newsletter is now available

Many subjects regarding oil and gas development, leasing and landowner information are contained in this issue.

The June 2012 issue of the Michigan State University Extension Oil and Gas Newsletter is now available. Topics discussed include: State of Michigan May 8, 2012 Oil and gas Lease Auction Results; Can Local Governments Regulate Oil and Gas Development?; Devon Energy Explores A-1 Carbonate and Utica-Collingwood Formations in Michigan; Michigan Oil and Gas Leases- Landowner Environmental Liability; Compulsory Pooling and the Landowner Not Willing to Lease; New Oil and Gas Leasing Webinar and DVD

Prior Oil and Gas newsletters and additional information including information for landowners in negotiating the oil and gas lease, a schedule of upcoming educational meetings, hydraulic fracturing, horizontal drilling, rights of way guidelines and other related information is available at the Oil and Gas website. This information can be downloaded to share with others interested in these topics. With some effort, this information can assist a landowner in the development of an oil and gas lease agreement that is a positive win–win agreement between the landowner and oil development company.
