Even before Coronavirus and the oil price collapse, shale drilling was slowing down, and the industry as a whole was entering a dry season. But why? After ten years of seemingly successful shale drilling and achieving energy independence, why are oil and gas companies struggling?  This is a brief summary of the analysis by Blue Mesa Minerals.…

River basin commissions created by compacts to coordinate water resource planning have become greedy bureaucratic empires thirsty for ever more control.

There is battle for sovereignty going on this country between states and river basin commissions they created long ago to jointly develop water resources. It’s like a scene out of that old movie 2001, where a computer named Hal suddenly assumes control over its makers. River basin commissions such as the ones…

Executive Vice President of the Ohio Chamber of Commerce and the Executive Director of the Ohio Shale Coalition, Linda Woggon, discusses the incredible change Ohio is seeing because of growing shale development in the Buckeye State:

"Shale energy has the potential to drive economic development and job growth across the Buckeye State. From land payments, infrastructure improvements, well construction and pipelines to the rebirth of the chemical industry and manufacturing, the…

These are exciting times in the natural gas industry here in Ohio and across the United States.  The last four years have brought plunging wholesale natural gas prices due to the combination of substantially increased supplies with only modest growth in demand.  The resulting low prices have created an enormous economic benefit for both gas customers and the overall economy.

Ohio is in a unique position to benefit from the production of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids from…

Bryant LaTourette says it's alla bout the kids:

Remember, me? I started the Oxford Land Group. The Oxford coalition has since merged with the Central New York (CNY) Landowners Coalition. I am one of the original past founders of the Joint Landowners Coalition of New York (JLCNY). I helped put together the first rally (Pass Gas!), which was a great beginning. Together we stood in Albany on that cold rainy day. Every day since, many of us have been working at some capacity to help…

Certified Baseline Sampler Training Program…

Like many who grew up in the Upper Delaware River valley, the mere mention of Gasland has grated on me like Roseanne Barr singing the national anthem. It’s not just the facts he got wrong or the truth he distorted. You expect that sort of thing from Josh Fox and it didn’t take long for Energy In Depth and several others to correct the record on the flaming Colorado faucet, Dunkard Creek and the rain rot present on some of the animals pictured. No, what was so offensive was the sheer…

The following is text from EPA Site.



"Water is an integral component of the hydraulic fracturing process. EPA Office of Water regulates waste disposal of flowback and sometimes the injection of fracturing fluids as authorized by the Safe Drinking Water Act and Clean Water Act.
