EXPERIENCE
2003 to
Present
INDEPENDENT OIL AND GAS LANDMAN
Business Owner
Aggressively put together Drilling Units with Pioneer Royalty, Inc. and
other partners. I lead all activities to research Court House Records,
compose legal descriptions, prepare oil and gas leases, negotiate lease
terms with mineral owners, file leases and related documents in the
Public record, make lease map plats, and assemble spread sheets with
mineral ownership. These Units or groups of leases were sold or put into
drilling partnerships.
The ability to do curative work for title issues demonstrates my
knowledge of the law in oil and gas leasing, exploration, and production.
My personality, people skills, and aggressive actions enable me to have
success in a competitive environment by building relationships and trust
with mineral owners. Attention to detail, long hours, and hard work
produced an accurate, cost effective, and marketable final product.
Contract work experience as a landman in the offices of Gaither
Petroleum preparing Well Files, due diligence research for acquisitions,
coordinating title research, leasing, and researching HBP and Units.
My contract work for HJA, Inc., Dudley Land, Western Land, and Bajon
in Texas, Mississippi, and Louisiana included: Court House research,
identifying and finding mineral owners, preparing leases, negotiating
leases, preparing lease packages, run sheets, and lease “take off” reports.
I am an active member of the American Association of Professional
Landmen (AAPL) , HAPL and WHAPL. I am a Registered Landman (RL)
with plans to test for RPL in March.
