RE:   GeoMet, Inc.

Registration Statement on Form 8-A

File No. 001-32960

 

Dear Mr. Schwall:

 

On July 27, 2006, GeoMet, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Registration Statement on Form 8-A, File No. 001-32960, which registered the Company’s common stock pursuant to Rule 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”). We were previously informed that the Nasdaq Stock Market was converting to be a national securities exchange and, therefore, the common stock should be registered pursuant to Rule 12(b). After filing the Form 8-A, we were informed by Nasdaq that it would not become a national securities exchange until Tuesday, August 1, 2006, and that the Company need to file another Form 8-A to register its common stock pursuant to Rule 12(g) of the Act, which we filed earlier today. Therefore, we respectfully request that the Form
8-A, File No. 001-32960, be withdrawn. As discussed, the new Form 8-A became effective upon filing with the Securities Exchange Commission.

 

If you have any questions, please call Kirk Tucker of Thompson & Knight LLP, our legal counsel, at (713) 951-5805.

 

Sincerely,

/s/ J. Darby Seré
