Chesapeake Declares Eastern Ohio RICH IN OIL!

Matthew Steffy of the Tribune Chronicle (July 29, 2011) reported an announcement made by Chesapeake:  "Utica Shale in eastern Ohio is liquid rich."  These results follow two years of "proprietary geoscientific, petrophysical and engineering research performed by Chesapeake. Eastern Ohio Utica Shale is said to be "characterized by a western oil phase, a central wet gas phase, and an eastern dry gas phase."   Chesapeake who currently holds 18 of the 24 drilling permits in Ohio plans to drill 20 wells by 2012 and 40 wells by 2014.  The discovery is said to increase the value of Chesapeake by $15 to $20 billion.

I'm sorry you feel that way.  But, it's that type of politics that governs when and how the infrastructure of Ohio may be developed.  It is definitely a part of the plan, and it most certainly has a place in this saga.  ABC News reported that China feels our national debt is attributed to war expenses and a social welfare system.  In part, I agree with them.  On the other hand, it bothers me that the one party that was recently accused of holding this country hostage--mirrors the values of a very powerful communist nation that has problems with credit that are far worse than our own.  You need to follow the political agenda because the elitist in this nation may one day ascribe to assume control of YOUR mineral rights.

What you say is pretty accurate only they all had a hand in it.   Social welfare coupled with an evaporation of industry has been a mainstay of our system for the last three decades, excluding the computer industry.  Thank God for these mineral rights because this product will keep our region prosperous.  Our local concern is going to be the Takers, lead by the elite-entitled will do everything possible to purge property to give to the State.  As far as China, my family has homes in Asia, yes they are amazed at how spoiled we have come to the low point of, God will not provide , the Government will provide.  Alas! they are broke.
