Re:      Chesapeake Energy Corporation;
         Our File No. 3520-0076

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         We have acted as special Oklahoma counsel for Chesapeake Energy
Corporation, an Oklahoma corporation (the "Company"), and certain of its
subsidiaries with respect to the preparation of a Registration Statement on Form
S-3 (the "Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") in connection with the registration by the Company
and certain of its subsidiaries under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"), of the certain securities of the Company and such
subsidiaries including shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per
share (the "Common Stock").

         We have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified
to our satisfaction, of: (a) the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as
amended, and Bylaws of the Company and (b) such other certificates, statutes and
other instruments and documents as we considered appropriate for purposes of the
opinions hereafter expressed.

         In connection with this opinion, we have assumed that the Registration
Statement, and any amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments),
will have become effective and that the Common Stock will be sold in compliance
with applicable federal and state securities laws and in the manner described in
the Registration Statement.

         Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that when (i) the board
of directors of the Company (the "Board") has taken all necessary corporate
action to approve the issuance and terms of the offering of the Common Stock and
related matters; and (ii) certificates representing the shares of Common Stock
have been duly executed, countersigned, registered and delivered in accordance
with the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement
approved by the Board upon payment of the consideration therefor (not less than
the par value of the Common Stock) provided for therein, such shares of Common
Stock will be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

         We are members of the bar of the State of Oklahoma. The opinions
expressed herein are limited exclusively to the federal laws of the United
States of America and the laws of the State of Oklahoma, and we are expressing
no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction, domestic or
foreign.
