Ten years ago I had the pleasure to be introduced to this
great Chapter, I found something I didn’t even know I was
looking for: a place to network with others in my field,
expand my professional knowledge, and somewhere I
could help people grow and succeed in their careers the
way others had helped me. It has been a joy to attend
meeting, classes, and events with you all. I truly
appreciate all that our Board and Past-Presidents have
done to make this a great chapter. I hope I can now do
my part as President to grow our chapter, increase
member value, and keep this Chapter great!
I was truly honored to be able to represent our Chapter at
the recent Annual Education Conference in Hartford, CT
where our own Lee Hamre was inducted as President of
legislative review
our Association. My thanks to Bonnie Roerig and the

Holland & Hart, LLP
others who helped coordinate Lee’s reception. I felt our sponsorship of that party was a

good investment. I’d also like to thank the Chapter’s strong presence at the conference; it
was great having so many good friends there! The conference was very rewarding and
professional development provided a great opportunity to learn, network, and have a great time. I hope to see many

I was lucky to be able to attend the Leadership Institute session at the Conference. The
speaker gave a great talk on making change work for us. I wish our entire Chapter could
have been there, it was an eye-opener for me as I realized my own reluctance to embrace
change at times. There have been many changes in our Association over the last year or so,
many a result of influences outside our control, such as the IRS. We, as a Chapter, have the
choice to work with these changes and make them work for us, or simply ignore them,
probably to our detriment. I hope you will join me in working with the Association to give
these changes a chance, such as the Communities of Practice and Member Fuse, so we can
provide input on improving these changes going forward.
I’m very thankful that about 5-years ago when I expressed an interest in serving on the
Board, then President J. Parker encouraged me to attend Board Meetings and provide
input. If you are interested in getting more involved in our Chapter and Association, please
let me know; all are welcome and you’ll find a group that encourages new voices and ideas.
Enjoy the remainder of your summer, be safe and I hope to see you at the September
Board Meeting and dinner.
Thank you,
Fred Easton, Jr., PLS

Course Description
The oil and gas lease is the base agreement governing the right to own and transport hydrocarbons from, over, and
across an oil and gas field. This and other related agreements are usually the exclusive domain of the Exploration
Landman. You will learn in this course that this need not be the case.
The purpose of this course is to expand the knowledge base of the Right of Way Agent /Surface Landman .
In this course, you will:
•
Learn and understand the basics of exploration mineral land work
•
Study the responsibilities and necessary knowledge base of a Field Exploration Mineral Landman, including the
contractual agreements that must be fully understood (i.e. the oil and gas lease and related documents).
•
Understand and determine when, where and why the lessee (or their assigns), under the terms of an oil and gas
lease, has the right to build pipelines and related facilities for transporting hydrocarbons across an oil and gas lease.
•
Examine the surface rights of the oil and gas lessee and how they relate to the responsibilities of Right of Way
Agents / Surface Landmen in support of the pipeline industry
•
Apply this new knowledge to practical land and right of way issues in the oil and gas field, including
building gathering systems and laterals, gathering system due diligence and gas storage field contractual
construction.
Whether as a primer to understand exploration land work or to expand your talents in the right of way field, this course
will provide you with vital information to excel in your ROW project.
This course is a lecture based in-person classroom learning experience. This course is one of IRWA’s premier courses for
IRWA’s Pipeline Certificate Program. The Pipeline Certificate program will be unveiled early 2015.
