Forced Pooling

When the oil company says it is a win/win proposition….you better know that it means that the oil company wins twice!  After reading this article I am convinced that sooner than later, the gas and oil industry will wear down our legislature and overcome the opposition to forced pooling.   On paper you can see how one oil company has it all planned out.   The chart shows how forced pooling will transform you land, farm and wooded sanctuaty into an electric grid-like gasland.   MSDRS believes that both the landowners and the oil companies can win together, but we don’t believe that forced pooling is the way to go or that it is the win/win that is purports to be.
