Seismic testing in Hookstown...

<p>Jack is exactly right, once again! I have seen the seismic printouts for South Beaver. There is a good sized fault running right across the border of one of my properties. Guess where the horizontal is planned to stop for the nearest well.... yep, right there near the fault at about a 50 degree angle to the fault.</p>
<p>Jack, We really do appreciate what you bring to the table here.</p>

<p>Jack, Thank you again for your help ! I put everything you say into this old brain of mine. I leased with Chesapeake in August,2011. 5 year lease with 5 year option. I am still saying prayers that all goes well with no problems. Our farm means everything to me and my Husband. We are retired and enjoying our animals. I am still learning and trying to do the right thing to keep all safe as we can. Craig and Fang have also been a great help to me. I learn so much from the 3 of you, and others…</p>

<p>I am pleased to learn that Seitel have taken your needs and concerns into account; they were all valid and merited respect.</p>
<p>I do not know whether your property is leased; or if leased, to whom. And if leased, what the terms of that lease might be with respect to pooling/unitization. And really not my business.</p>

<p>Allowing seismic data can increase the likelihood of being included in a unit; should that be your desire.</p>
<p>The availability of subsurface data allows an O & G Operator to proceed with greater confidence, and that confidence can mean that a unit is drilled, and drilled sooner rather than later.</p>
<p>There are those who would caution that the seismic data can discover faulting that will condemn a property; it is my opinion that should something such a fault be discovered, there is the potential to locate a pad such that the fault is avoided. It is to neither the Landowner nor the O & G Operator’s advantage that a poor well be drilled, not when a more optimal location could be planned.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Again, good luck.</p>

<p>Thank you Jack, Mike (from Seitel)..... stopped by today with a whole new contract for testing. All of my worries have been added with this addendum. It cover all my concerns covering, no testing near wet lands, ponds, creeks and many more I did not ask for. They would be testing (if I sign) well away from where my horses are. The wildlife will not be around because of the people there. There will be 9 holes dug (not 40). They will not be bringing in large equipment on our dike by our…</p>

The wildlife will not be around because of the people there. There will be 9 holes dug (not 40). They will not be bringing in large equipment on our dike by our small lakes and roads. My neighbors are far away from where they would be testing. So far, Seitel seems to be a wonderful company to work with.... we shall see what the future brings. At this point....I am very impressed.

<p>Nancy,</p>
<p> Should you come to an accommodation with the Seismic Acquisition Contractor and the survey on your property is completed, please return and post you comments on how things went.</p>
<p>There is a lot of fear, and many have concerns about the process; these concerns are natural and appropriate, as this is a process alien to almost all.</p>

<p>There is a lot of fear, and many have concerns about the process; these concerns are natural and appropriate, as this is a process alien to almost all.</p>
<p>It is through the knowledge gained through "real" experiences by those who have gone through the entire process that have "real" value to others who will find themselves in similiar circumstances (and needing to make similar decisions).</p>
<p>It would seem from other posts that not all Contractors are equal; particularly with regards their respect for the land and the Landowners. Fortunately for you, it would seem that Seitel have a good reputation in both regards.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good luck and let us know how things go,</p>

<p>While I agree with most of what you listed Jeff, I would like to add that IF you were to lose your water well it would only because your well needed fixed to start with. A properly installed water well should have absolutely no problem. As far as the water aquifer your well taps into, I've been around those charges once and I don't believe they could alter the flow of water by any stretch.</p>

<p>IN regards to #5- There must not be enough of the proper geological info available or these folks wouldn't be spending tons of money trying to get it done. Remember they have to sell the info to make any money, which means someone out there wants it.</p>
<p>Overall, I'd probably be inclined to let them do it while letting them know my concerns. My 2 ¢</p>
