Please accept my attached resume and references for any available position which my
skill and abilities are best suited.
In 2007 I began working in the Oil and Gas Industry as a Lease Agent/Right of Way
Agent and since then I have gained further experience working in house, processing all
oil and gas related documents and working in the field as a Landman. I am fully equipped
with knowledge from start to finish in the leasing and right of way process, and from unit
inclusion to production. I believe my knowledge and determination make me an asset. I
am able to multitask, think and act quickly, meet deadlines, and maintain a professional
demeanor in any environment. I am able to perform work independently and efficiently.
I feel my organizational skills, attention to detail and strong work ethic is beneficial. I
am able to acclimate myself to my surroundings and utilize maps and current technology
to navigate to all necessary destinations. I have experience in supervision of contractors,
reviewing and approving invoices, reviewing language and special requests and working
with in house legal to craft and update forms and documents. I have also worked with
farm outs and JOA’s.
Please review my attached resume and references. Thank you for your time and I look
forward to hearing from you. I may be contacted at 814-592-1092.
Sincerely,
Michael D. Millinder
