&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;Burke v. Excalibur Exploration&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt;, Ohio’s Eleventh District held that the nonproducing horizontal portions of leased lands are released at the conclusion of the primary term regardless of whether the lease contains a Pugh Clause. (11th Dist. Ashtabula No. 2016-A-0041, 2017-Ohio-999) The lessors in &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;Burke&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt; sought to have any acreage which was not included in a drilling unit released from the lease. The court determined that the lack of language in the lease specifying that production from any portion of the lands will hold the lease for the entirety of lands evidenced that the parties did not intend such an effect. Thus, rather than require a Pugh Clause, the Eleventh District appears to find that a horizontal Pugh Clause is imputed absent language to the contrary.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;                        </content>

                            &lt;p&gt;I know Bright Rock Energy is planning a well on the corner of Hartley Rd  and Shelton Rd. that will head towards the southeast. and I was told they are also planning another unit directly to the west of this one.

&lt;p&gt;Eog was planning a well on Tower rd that would head towards the Dollar General in Damascus. Not sure if this well is still going to happen or not but they are still recording leases so I assume its still a go.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Del Rio is  recording a lot of leases daily on land east of the Bright rock unit(s). As far as I know Del Rio does not drill wells. Does anyone have any information on who will be drilling all this leased land east of the Bright Rock units over towards Salem .&lt;/p&gt;                        </content>
