Fact Check: Natural Gas Experts

Nicole sorts through the “everyone’s an expert” mentality on natural gas development to get to the heart of who the real experts are on this topic (NOTE: It’s not the actors or politically correct academics).There is a lot of information circulating in the media and on the internet about natural gas development. Much of this stems from meetings held around the area where so-called experts step up to the plate in an attempt to educate the public.  But, how do you determine when a worthwhile…See More

Fact Check: Natural Gas in Bradford County

If you search “fracking” on the internet, you’ll find one anecdotal story after another littering websites supposedly offering a “real” look at natural gas development. All of them, of course, are negative in tone.  As someone who was on the fence on this topic only a couple of years ago, I can attest to how difficult this can make it for someone searching for honest-to-goodness facts on the development process.  It can be downright exhausting.  The advice hammered into us over many years of…See More

Low natural gas prices, coupled with a growing demand…See More

Artists Against Fracking? No, Artists Looking for Relevance Part I

The newly developed “Artists Against Fracking” campaign has left me utterly perplexed. Here you have individuals who have the potential to do a lot of good but rather are jumping on a bandwagon filled with misinformation. They believe by maligning a proven technology they are clearing the way for expanded use of renewable energy sources.  Ignoring, or simply being unaware, that the technology they are seeking to ban is helping the U.S. lead the world in carbon emissions reductions and is…See More

All Shale Plays, Marcellus
Tell us your story...
We leased in 2008 with Range Resources in Lycoming County, PA. Had a surface spill with the well up the road that impacted our private water well and left us wanting to get more educated. After thorough research I realized there is a lot of misinformation out there and decided I wanted to work in this industry. After taking the Fit 4 Natural Gas course with Penn College I ended up working for ShaleNet and Shaledirectories.com briefly before obtaining employment with the Energy in Depth Northeast Marcellus Initiative. My boyfriend (the homeowner) now works for a hydraulic fracturing company.
