re: Landman advice

I had a couple years of field experience and 4 years in-house before going to Anadarko. I also had an offer from Conoco and Shell but I preferred the feel of working for an independnent. We recruit the PLM/Energy Management schools pretty hard but ULL isn't one of them. From what I've gathered, the majors love recruiting the Energy Management kids from OU. I work with a ton of then at my current job. We also hire a ton of attorneys from various schools. There is currently a need for 5-10 year in-house guys but not really for inexperienced ones.

OU and Texas Tech are the primary PLM schools...to the guy who started this thread, ignore the advice about not getting a PLM and working for Suncoast in their office isn't in-house.
Your goal should be to go in-house as the work is infinitely more reliable and steady and you aren't stuck out in BFE for months at a time (though that can be fun when you're young, just out of college).
Get a PLM, preferably at TT or OU...or get your JD.
And to all the field guys, I'd highly recommend getting in-house due diligence experience...the shale leasing boom and abstracting boom is winding down...acquisitions and mergers should dominate the next several years.

i really wish i would have gotten an energy management degree instead of a construction science degree from OU. i do have my JD from Tulane though.
i've been looking for landman work for a while and haven't had a whole lot of luck. i'm being picky though bc i'd like to be within a reasonable commute from new orleans.
