Hello, i have property in Ritchie Co WV. How do i find Companies that are currently leasing in WVa?
This might help: Search Operator and Agent Address
Do you know which district?
200+ acres in Grant District.
If your property is on Sheep Run in Grant District, Ritchie County. This is currently no-man’s land as far as as Marcellus development goes. Questionable geology. I would be very surprised if any company would be interested in leasing over that way.
In your understanding, how far north, south, east, and west does the questionable geology extend from Sheep Run? Is this more an oil area than shale gas?
@Gloriadbrown, I’m going to go one step further than @WVOGM and say that anywhere in Grant is no man’s land and likely won’t be developed in the foreseeable future. Most operators will only be looking to sign a lease if they see potential activity within 5 years, you could potentially find a company interested in purchasing your rights, but they aren’t worth thousands per acre due to their location and the relatively low chance for development.
