PA Royalty Owners Convention Upcoming State College, Pa. - PA NARO will host its 1st annual meeting and State Convention March 31 and April 1 at the Toftree’s Convention Center in State College, PA. Due to the high level of gas leasing and drilling activity in the Marcellus Shale, the Pennsylvania Chapter of the Tulsa-based National Association of Royalty Owners (“NARO”) will conduct an annual meeting and educational convention for mineral interest owners, natural gas professionals and the public. The event will provide two days packed with the latest in Pennsylvania oil and gas related legal issues, upcoming legislation, Marcellus technical developments, regulatory changes, geology, gas markets and more. The NARO PA annual meeting and convention meeting will be the introduction of NARO to Pennsylvania. NARO-PA has held a series of highly successful “town hall meetings” across the State over the past several months. These meetings introduced valuable information for landowners who have engaged in or are considering leasing their land for natural gas exploration. Some of the topics to be included in 2011 include: The Role of Fractures in Marcellus Production with Dr. Terry Engelder, PSU Professor of Geosciences. Dr. Engelder is credited with the 2008 announcement that focused national attention to the vast Marcellus Shale deposit underlying the Commonwealth.

Technical Panel Discussion moderated by Jerry Simmons will include: Robert Garland, Universal Well Services; Jeff Kiem, Cabot Oil and Gas Corp.; Dan Tomley, XTO Energy and Talisman Energy. Ask those burning questions regarding regulation, well siting, construction, drilling, hydraulic fracturing, unitization and more. PA Legislative Issues - Senator Gene Yaw. The Senator was responsible for introducing legislation passed in 2010 to address Clean & Green and to require reporting for Marcellus production. He will discuss 2011 legislative initiatives with the potential to impact oil and gas development. Mineral Management 101 - Dale Tice Esq., Marshall Parker & Associates and Earle Robbins, CMM, R&R Energy Consulting.
