American Right of Way Associates Holds Haynesville Shale Training Class

Shreveport, LA, August 21, 2009 --(PR.com)-- August 29th, 2009 from 9:00am to 3:00pm at the Petroleum Club of Shreveport located in the Mid South American Right of Way Associates (ARWA, Inc.) will hold a training class Saturday, Towers building in Downtown Shreveport on the corner of Travis Street and Edwards Street.

The class is titled Right of Way Agent Training Program. It was developed to teach the skills necessary for new right of way agents to serve energy, utility, oil & gas companies located in and around Northern Louisiana.

This one day training class is an exciting new course designed to train local individuals in the skills necessary to meet the demands for right of way agents created by the Haynesville Shale play and will provide training in the areas of Title Examination, Engineering, Real Estate Evaluation, Right of Way Easement & Servitudes, Pipeline Construction and Negotiations.

There is a need for trained right of way agents to assist with acquiring right of way for pipelines to carry natural gas from individual well sites to existing pipeline infrastructure as well as power line, water lines, etc. It is anticipated the development of the Haynesville Shale will continue for the next two decades. With the decline in Landman jobs, right of way would be the next opportunity for a career in the Haynesville Shale. According to local professionals, right of way agents working in the area of the Haynesville Shale typically earn between $45,000 and $90,000 annually depending upon experience and personal initiative.

"We have had many successful training classes in the Barnett Shale for the past three years and three successful training classes in the Haynesville Shale" said Don Valden, CEO of American Right of Way Associates. "Our training has allowed hundreds of people to break into an industry that was once based on who you know, not what you know. It has been our experience with our clients that those days are behind us."
