I posted about this company on this website on November 12 2009. Gasfrac is mentioned in the first draft NYDEC GEIS draft as an alternative. I talked to this company personally in 2008 and have attended a presentation by them. The so called chemical…

I believe there is a study done by the state , indicating that trenton wells completed with the right tchniques will make oil.  I think  in eastern stuben county.   I have studied oil windows in several states.

Emotion is on both sides, Just ask the farmers who fought the fist fights outside a showing of Gasland.

By infrastructure I meant large storage facilities and maybe a facility that creates the gelled propane. I am not sure if pressurized propane is the same as the gelled. in the heart of the Marcellus region where I reside the propane facilities would…

Actually this has been talked about. GasFrac is mentioned as an alternative to water fracking in the New York draft GEIS. I actually called and talked to Gasfrac. From my discussion: They need the infrastructure in place to produce the gelled…

Thank you for all your replies. I knew this was going on all over, flying under the radar. In PA. the gas companies can do whatever they want with the blessing of the Commonwealth in regards to units. State politicians have to be made aware of…

A lot of laywers don't know much about what is going on. And I'm always surprised how much miss information is floating around. I've been told in the last week that the first 3 months worth of Natural gas all the profits go…

Most times an amendment has to be approved of by the lessees in order for the oil and gas companies to have units larger than 640 acres as per the lease.  Unfortunately a lot of landowners get duped by the oil and gas companies declaring that…

You are not alone,many landowners are in the same boat.We are also a victim.Has anyone heard of a law suit ,or a proposed bill to limit the acreage in a unit for Pa.?? After all, no limit means they could put the whole state of Pa. in the unit. We…

I think it is important for the government to regulate units. As far as I know (and I could be wrong) there is nothing our state does to protect land owners from Natural gas companies in terms of unit manipulation. A NG company can create a unit…

I have seen this occur elsewhere.  There is a 900+ acre unit in Bradford county (Harris Unit in Burlington Twp), in which approximately 34 leases are being held by one well.  The one well that was drilled goes 2500 ft underneath one parcel…

Although this maybe a new strategy, I think it may work for you.  Contact a bakruptcy lawyer and see if entering reorganization (chapter 11) may get the old leases reorganized.  Remember, chapter 11 is not liquidation but a means to…

DEC commissioner responds to Walter Hang and Walter Hangs response to commissioner

http://www.pressconnects.com/assets/pdf/CB149869111.PDF Hang



Mr. Hang doubles down on misrepresenting and attacking the DEC for incompetence.

The tone implies his statistics are true because he says so.

He would probably have a stroke if he looked into the… Continue

Walter Hang and his "statistics"

Many of you know of the fight in New York State between those that support safe drilling and those that want to ban it.

Mr. Wang would like to see drilling banned and plays loose with the facts and statistics.

A friend of mine had some personal experience with Mr. Wang in the early 80's with the Ralph Nadar group NYPIRG.

My friend wanted to make some money for college and worked for NYPIRG.

He quit after just 2 days when he saw what the group was all about.

Wang has… Continue
