I live in the area and wonder if anyone knows if the well is finally up and running after being tied up in the courts for several weeks. We have 38 acres and signed a lease a good while ago which was way too early I think.Being close to the Ohio border, is it true that it is the wet gas? I have been told both ways.

Does anyone know who is fracking the well?
Based on the trucks and signs I saw, it's Weatherford.

I don't think anyone really knows at this point what is going on.
Permalink Reply by Frank Nesmith on October 10, 2012 at 7:06am I hear fracking lasted less than 2 days. Is that normal? They were supposedly there 7 days total, but actual fracking was less than two days. Anyone know?

Permalink Reply by Ronald R. Nesbitt on October 11, 2012 at 9:34am I did see in the paper that a judge has ordered the lawsuits settled & closed so that can't be the problem. I just passed there and the gates are still closed.
Permalink Reply by Frank Nesmith on October 12, 2012 at 1:41am Seems they fracked and did not get the flowback or flare. I thought that was all one process. Are you or is anyone aware if this is common practice here? Wonder how long before they come back and do flowback and flare.
I also saw that there was a settlement.
Permalink Reply by Ronald R. Nesbitt on October 12, 2012 at 6:28am Thanks Frank and no I don't know anything about the process and the well sits well off the road and behind houses so I can't see much of anything. Do you or anyone know about how long it takes to do the fracking.
Generally speaking, fracking takes two weeks.
Permalink Reply by Frank Nesmith on October 14, 2012 at 5:28pm They were there for 7 days, but fracking only lasted 2 days. Lots of odd things going on there. They only drilled it to HBP so they didn't have to pay those people any more money. Wonder if that is one of the wells being sold to Chevron?

AboutWhat makes this site so great? Well, I think it's the fact that, quite frankly, we all have a lot at stake in this thing they call shale. But beyond that, this site is made up of individuals who have worked hard for that little yard we call home. Or, that farm on which blood, sweat and tears have fallen. [ Read More ] |
