The drillers are telling me they are just going vertical.  No plans to go horizontal and fracking.  I don't believe that, they just don't like to give info.  They are stripping the top soil off at Yoder's place on Hilltop Road.  That is where the next one is supposed to be. The drilling is pretty noisy, glad I have good insulation.

Who is actually doing the drilling? Did that unit come in on one truck that is rising in the air? or is it a put together piece?

It came in pieces.  They put it together on the ground, stood it up, and then raised by putting the platform under it, then telescoped the tower up.  They are hauling brine out by the semi load constantly now.  The first pipe was 30" in diameter and they told me they will size down as they go deeper to 5.5" at the bottom.  This rig drills with air pressure and big nozzles.  When this one is done, they change nozzles and use drilling mud that Haliberton is supplying.

Yes. The noise isn't too bad. Our house is well insulated. They had a big break down, but are back running now. Where is the Gallagher pad?

Mr. William Cusick, how is the drilling going over there?  are they doing a couple of laterals or just one?
