Patterson well

I looked in the sky and it is orange. Oh yes I have seen this before only its a lot bigger, what I drove down the road to see was the utica well being flared off on the patterson well. It had to be four or five times the size of the marcellus well flare which was in of itself a pretty good one. This well has a marcellus and a utica on it as a"test well". Looks like they passed the test. It is amazing and really hot from afar. It was raining and so as the flame was taller than the flare pipe, the groud was steaming all arond.

all 3phase separators do the same thing. they separate water oil and gas. water at any weight is heavier than oil or condensate. the condensate or oil sits on top the water and spills over a plate in the separator called a weir thats how the liquid separation occurs. The gas will rise and escape through the top of the separator. Lastly it doesnt matter if the liquid is 10lb brine water or fresh water the separator can be used to separate it.

Out of curiosity does anyone know the diameter of this Tennessee Pipeline? I believe this is the same one that runs through my property but it was laid before my time. Also it is only a 50' ROW to my knowledge so would the ROW need widened to accomodate more lines?

Has anyone out there tried to get copies of these old ROW leases from the pipeline companies and if so what's the procedure?

This Tennessee line was laid when the property was under different ownership and I have never seen a lease copy for it. The landowner at the time is long deceased.

Any help on these questions would be greatly appreciated.

A copy of the old ROW/easement should be on file at your county courthouse. It's not difficult to check the records yourself, and the recorder's staff are usually helpful to the local property owner.

Thanks Brian. I think the Tennessee pipeline that runs through my place is the one that splits off and heads towards Pittsburgh. It runs roughly SE & NW. Might this be the 24 inch line ?
