I think all papers need to be peer reviewed and I have done it for the EAGE, I also think the RECORDER has published a lot of good papers and we do peer review them.
We do reject and all of us editors always feel we made that paper all that better. Just finished a review for the EAGE and it made a large difference. TLE is a good place to publish and we welcome any one who wants to publish but it will be reviewed. Even be rejected trust me, even though I am Chief Editor RECORDER rejected my paper.
