报告摘要：
Advances in hydrofracturing and horizontal drilling has made drilling for “unconventional gas” in the Marcellus formation in the northeastern United States economic.  This economic opportunity, however, has created a series of economic questions revolving around energy land rights.  In the U.S., unlike other countries, below ground mineral rights are owned by landowners.  Before drilling, natural gas producers must negotiate for the rights to extract the natural gas.  Experienced production companies negotiate complicated legal agreements with unsophisticated landowners.  In this presentation I present my research agenda in this area and allow the audience to experience part of my research methodology.
