Shaler,

I want to welcome the influx of new members that have joined over the last couple of weeks. This site is well on its way to becoming a valuable tool for organizing and sharing information on the Marcellus.

There are a few things that will make this site extremely useful; let me share.

1. Inviting your friends and neighbors. - Like any movement, word of mouth is huge in growing a network. The bottom line: The more people the more info there is to share. We each have our own knowledge and experiences to share. This leads to the 2nd item...
2. Go Local and utilize the County Groups. The more local we can go, the better for us all. We have also began a project to map Marcellus lease bonus offers. Join in!
3. Discuss broader Marcellus Shale issues in the Discussion Forum. Pitch in as you learn nuggets of information that you think may be useful to the group as a whole.
4. Keep your profile up to date.
5. Develop patience. I know some of us wanted to lease, like yesterday! But, this play is big and will take awhile to fully develop. Hang in there and get fully educated on the issues before you lease your property.

I am new to this forum and have enjoyed the posts and blogs that I have read thus far. The theme that resonates most with me is educating and sharing info so that knowledge trumps hype with respect to fracturing, produced water handling, protecting the environment, etc.

I'll share an article that I recently read:

http://fuelfix.com/blog/2012/01/04/opinion-fracking-fears-mostly-un...

This shows that your refridgerator and laundry rooms have many of the same chemicals used in fracturing fluids; my experience in the oil and gas business taught me that uncontrollable vertical fracture growth is very difficult to achieve.

 

Another article worthy of consideration is here:

My experience was that the vast majority of unwanted fluid transfer between permeable zones could be directly traced to poor cementing quality, casing corrosion or other well integrity issues
