The Jan Paul well site on Speidel Rd was just about ready for a Drill Rig a week ago.

On Wednesday morning, the rig was down. By this evening, there wasn't much left of the structure.

Will have to drive by Jan Paul well site to see if they are takingh the rig there. Not that far away from each other.

I am not sure but I think that the rig went to the ayrview farm pad which I think is on route 30 close to east rochester. Its says on the odnr website  that it is being drilled now.

Jim,

 That can't be true. The drill rig arrived at Ayrview Acres shortly after the drill rig arrived at Sanor Farms. The two drill rigs were up at the same time.

Well then I don't where it went? Is there a rig at the trebilcock sight yet?

JIm,

 Nope, no drill rig at the Trebilcock site, yet.

Utica,

 

I wonder if the rig you saw at the ayrview site at first was the small rig that they use to install the first section of casing? Thats what they did at the Sanor well.

Jim,

 I think the Drilling Rig from Sanor Farms went back to the Bucey Well in Carrol County. The Bucey well has both a Marcellus well and a Utica well both going North West. The Rig is now Drilling 6h at the Bucey Site to the South East. I saw a Rig at the Bucey well on Monday.

Fracking should start any day at the Sanor Farms well site.

Fresh Water Trucks are filling the fresh water Holding Tanks at the well site.

They need to make about 1,000 trips at 4,200 gallon each to bring in enough water.

Why are they using such small trucks to bring all that water?

Finn,

 Infinity currently has several 4,200 gallon trucks available this week.

 They do have several 8,000 gallon water trucks in their fleet.

 I did see three of Infinty's 8,000 gallon water trucks go into the West well in East Rochester.

 Infinity has about 15 of their water trucks operating in this specific area.

 

 It takes about 20 - 25 minutes to fill a 4,200 gallon truck.

 They don't actually pump the water into the truck ...

 A vacuum pump sucks the air out of the tank.
