By virtue of and in conformity with the provisions of Sub-part A of Chapter 2, Title 30 of the Louisiana Revised Statutes of 1950, as amended, and other applicable laws, sealed bids will be received in the Office of Mineral
Resources, LaSalle Office Building, Baton Rouge, Louisiana (P. O. Box 2827, Baton Rouge, LA 70821) on or before 12:00 noon on Tuesday, April 12, 2011 for a lease to
explore, drill for and produce oil, gas and any other liquid or gaseous minerals in solution and produced with oil or gas on the following described tracts (Tract Nos. 42009 through
42050 , inclusive) to be opened publicly Wednesday, April 13, 2011 in the LaSalle Office Building, 617 N. 3rd Street, Capitol Complex, Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
All bids shall offer a “Cash Payment” bonus, as set forth on the authorized bid form, for a lease having a primary term in conformity with whether said lease is an inland or offshore
lease and the said bonus shall maintain the lease in full force and effect for the first year.
If the bid offers an ANNUAL DELAY RENTAL, which is mandatory for leases with terms of more than one (1) year, it shall not be for less than one-half (1/2) of the Cash Payment bonus bid and any bids containing an annual
delay rental of less than one-half (1/2) of the
Cash Payment bonus will be increased to the
one-half (1/2) amount. Any lease granted shall
be without warranty or any recourse whatso-
ever, either express or implied, against Lessor
with regard to questions of title, not even for
the return by Lessor of any payments received
under the lease or being otherwise responsible
therefore to Lessee. Under LSA- R. S. 30:127,
the Minimum Royalty bid cannot be less than
one-eighth (1/8) of all oil, gas or other
liquid or gaseous minerals in solution
and produced with oil or gas and saved or
utilized. Rights to geothermal resources,
free sulphur, potash, lignite, salt and
other solid minerals are to be excluded
from any oil or gas mineral lease and any
bid purporting to include those rights will
be disregarded as to the extent of those
rights only. All bidders are notified that the
Mineral Board does not obligate itself to accept
any bid, and that acceptance is at the sole
discretion of the Mineral Board which reserves
the right to reject any and all bids or to grant a
lease on any portion of the tract advertised and
to withdraw the remainder of the tract.
Act 8 of the 2000 Second Extraordinary
Legislative Session established two additional
fees to be collected from mineral lessees
(excluding state agency lands) on all mineral
leases awarded. An additional fee of $15
per acre will be collected and deposited
into the Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries
Conservation Fund. An additional fee of
$5 per acre will be collected and depos-
ited into the Oil and Gas Regulatory Fund.
A separate check in the amount of $20 per
acre made payable to the Office of Mineral
Resources shall accompany the original bid
(inside the sealed bid envelope). Bidders may
use a regular check for payment of the fees.
The successful bidder will not receive the lease
executed by the State Mineral and Energy
Board until the fees are received. If the bidder
is unsuccessful, both the fee check and the
Cash Payment bonus check will be returned to
the unsuccessful bidder.
All leases awarded shall be executed upon
terms and conditions provided in the current
State lease form with all applicable riders
appended thereto a copy of which is available
for review in the Office of Mineral Resources,
Petroleum Lands Division, Leasing Section.
Certified check, cashier’s check or bank
money order payable to the OFFICE OF
MINERAL RESOURCES for the full amount
of the aforesaid Cash Payment bonus shall
be submitted with and accompany each bid,
and no bid, once submitted, may be thereaf-
ter withdrawn or canceled. Once the bid is
opened and accepted by the Mineral Board, the
accompanying checks or money order shall be
negotiated by the Office of Mineral Resources
and the proceeds disbursed in the manner
required by law.
SPECIAL NOTE:
Act 449 of the 2005 Regular Session of the
Louisiana Legislature requires that a prospec-
tive lease holder for a State mineral lease
be registered with the Office of Mineral
Resources. Registration with the Office of
Mineral Resources consists of filling out the
Prospective Leaseholder form and supplying
this office with a certificate from the Secretary
of State for the State of Louisiana attesting
that the prospective leaseholder is in good
standing as authorized to do business in the
State of Louisiana. UNDERSTAND that being
registered for nomination or any other purpose
DOES NOT CONSTITUTE REGISTRATION
AS A PROSPECTIVE LEASEHOLDER.
Act 449 specifically states that, “Only those
bidders who are registered prospective
leaseholders with the office of mineral
resources shall be allowed to bid on
tracts for the purpose of obtaining a min-
eral lease from the state of Louisiana.” If
an entity plans to submit a bid on a tract at any
State mineral lease sale, that bid WILL NOT be
accepted unless the bidding entity was properly
registered with the Office of Mineral Resources
prior to the lease sale at which its bid was sub-
mitted. THERE WILL BE NO EXCEPTIONS
TO THIS REQUIREMENT!!!
Under rules promulgated by the Department of
Natural Resources in accordance with authority
granted by Act 106 of the First Extraordinary
Session of the Louisiana Legislature of 2002,
a fee equal to ten percent (10%) of the
Cash Payment bonus bid is required to
be submitted by separate check, accom-
panying the original bid (inside the sealed
bid envelope). Bidders may use a regular
check for the 10% fee. The successful
bidder will not receive the lease executed
by the State Mineral and Energy Board
until the fee is received. If the bidder is
unsuccessful, both the fee check and the Cash
Payment bonus check will be returned to the
unsuccessful bidder.
The successful bidder to whom the lease is
awarded who receives the written lease exe-
cuted by the State Mineral and Energy Board
shall return the written lease, duly executed
by Lessee (all of named Lessees on the lease
instrument), within TWENTY (20) DAYS of
receipt of same under penalty for failure to
do so of forfeiture of the lease, including the
Cash Payment bonus and fee tendered and
negotiated.
Bids may be for the whole or any particularly
described portion of the land advertised, but
consistent with Mineral Board policy. All bid-
ders are hereby notified that bids on portions of
tracts shall be described by metes and bounds
and be accompanied by a transparent plat
outlining thereon the portion bid upon. The
scale of the transparent plat shall be the same
as the scale of the OFFICIAL PLAT (NOT
THE F & A PLAT) CONTAINED HEREIN and
should identify the Point of Beginning with X
and Y coordinates (if applicable), the Section,
Township and Range, the Block No. (if off-
shore), the Parish, any adjacent existing State
Mineral Leases, and, further, should clearly
show the entire tract boundaries in relationship
to the portion bid upon. It shall also show the
Topographic features (Land and Water) of the
area in detail similar to the Official Plat con-
tained herein. Failure to follow these guidelines
in submitting a portion bid may result in outright
rejection of the portion bid by the State Mineral
and Energy Board at its sole discretion.
Notice is given that the State Mineral and
Energy Board will include provisions in
the lease to insure applicable payments
attributable to the lease property without
regard to adverse title claims, disputes,
litigation or title failure and the language
of those provisions is available to any
interested party at the Office of Mineral
Resources. Prospective bidders should
carefully examine the same prior to sub-
mitting any bid.
Some tracts available for leasing may be situ-
ated in the Louisiana Coastal Zone as defined
in Act 361 of the Regular Session of the
Louisiana Legislature of 1978 (promulgated
as LSA-R. S. 49:213) and may be subject to
the guidelines and regulations promulgated
by the Coastal Management Section of the
Department of Natural Resources for opera-
tions in the Coastal Zone.
NOTE: All bids shall specify the Cash
Payment bonus for leases as a price
per acre amount and an aggregate total
amount, whereby a bid for the entire tract
shall be controlled by the bid price per
acre multiplied by the specified amount of
state owned/claimed acreage advertised
for the tract, and a bid for a portion of the
tract shall be controlled by the bid price
per acre multiplied by the actual amount
of state owned/claimed acreage within
the polygon boundaries of the portion bid.
For purposes of rental payments, the price
bid per acre for the Cash Bonus, reduced
if appropriate to the rental price per acre-
but not less than one-half of the price per
acre bid for the Cash Bonus- multiplied by
the state owned/claimed acreage of the
polygon bid (specified acreage if entire
tract is bid; actual acreage in portion
bid polygon) shall determine the amount
of the rental payment throughout the
primary term, regardless of any releases.
For purposes of deferred development
payments, one-half of the price per acre
bid for the Cash Bonus multiplied by the
state owned/claimed acreage within the
remaining lease polygon, if any release
has occurred, but outside of a unit polygon
within which unit activity is ongoing, shall
determine the amount of the deferred
development payment.
NOTE: Multiple portion bids on the same tract
may be accepted by the State Mineral and
Energy Board, even though they overlap. In
the case of overlapping portion bids on the
same tract, each of which is otherwise accept-
able to the State, the State Mineral and Energy
Board will indicate which one of the multiple
bids on the same tract is most advantageous,
considering the royalty, per acre cash payment,
bonus, any additional consideration and what,
in the sole discretion of the Mineral Board, is
in the best interest of the State, and that bid
(referred to as “Bid A”) will be given priority in
having a lease issued. The State Mineral and
Energy Board will also indicate the acceptability
of other portion bids on the same tract, if any,
in the order of their acceptance (referred to
respectively as “Bid B”, “Bid C”, etc.). Once
the plat of “Bid A” ‘s portion has been rendered
as accurately as possible, “Bid B” will be con-
tacted and given an option to take a lease on
the remaining portion of his portion bid acreage
not overlapping “Bid A” ‘s bid portion, at “Bid
B’ ‘s per acre bid price (both as to bonus and
rental); and thereafter, each successive bidder
whose bid is otherwise acceptable will be given
the option to take a lease on whatever por-
tion remains of his portion bid acreage at his
respective per acre bid price, less and except
any prior portion bid acreage on which the suc-
cessful bidder has opted to take a lease.
NOTE: If you require accommodations due to
a disability in order to attend or participate in
a meeting, please notify the Office of Mineral
Resources at P.O. Box 2827, Baton Rouge, LA
70821-2827 or 225-342-4606 at least two (2)
working days before the meeting date.
NOTE: DEEPWELL INCENTIVE: It is impor-
tant for the continued prosperity and welfare of
the people of the state of Louisiana, that the
state promote the continued growth and devel-
opment of the mineral resources of the state
of Louisiana. It is the intention of this notice
to inform the bidders of the economic incen-
tives allowed by state law in order to enhance
mineral production to the ultimate benefit of the
state. In accordance with the provisions of LA
R.S. 47§633(9)(d)(v), Louisiana law allows the
suspension of severance tax on the production
of natural gas, gas condensate, and oil from
any well drilled to a true vertical depth of more
than fifteen thousand (15,000) feet, where the
production commenced after July 31, 1994.
The severance tax exemption shall start from
the date of production for twenty-four months
or until payout of the well cost, whichever
comes first. In addition to this Severance Tax
Provision, please refer to other applicable
statutes, such as LA R.S. 47§633, 47§633.4
and 30§127.1 for other incentives allowed by
Louisiana law.
