Gulfport looks to sell Utica interests
Wednesday, November 6, 2019
After losing $48.8 million, or 31 cents per diluted share, during the third quarter, Gulfport Energy announced plans to sell some of its interests in the Utica Shale, according to the Times Reporter.
The company made the announcement before its conference call with investors to discuss third-quarter earnings last Friday.
Gulfport said proceeds from its sale of non-operated interests would offset higher-than-anticipated spending this year in the Utica. It expected to have an agreement on the sale before the end of the year.

Will I get free natural gas if I allow fracking on my property?
Maybe. It depends on your particular lease agreement. Some companies allow property owners a yearly free gas allowance. But, the process of connecting your property to the gas source may be more complicated. Some companies will provide a hookup, others require the landowner to provide one.
