Just curious...

     I am in Liberty township and a few months ago got an offer to buy my royalties for 1500 to 1800 per acre, but they would do a more in-depth look if I was serious which "mite change the numbers" slightly....even tho I am not drilled or receiving any royalties ..talked to a landsman rite b4 I contacted them and he advised caution as there will be "significant" activity in my area in the "near future"....how about it, anybody else get an offer or hear anything or see any activity here in Tioga Co. ?

And where they r tied into main looks like there is room for more wells

from Sharretts to tie in is with a 4” pipeline

From gas house to main is a 10” tie in to main pipeline....

Thanks. Just was not aware of it I guess.  Many other pads with wells have not had the luck to be tied in yet. A matter of time I suppose and politics!

To paraphrase info in the NFG presentation I posted the url for, they were starting up development in Lycoming to have gas to put in the Atlantic Sunrise pipeline until there was sufficient gas from their WDA Utica redevelopment to satissfy the requirement.

"Gas well pressure issue leads to testing of water supply for northern Westmoreland County communities

The Municipal Authority of Westmoreland County has asked for an extra water sample from Beaver Run Reservoir after a gas well located near the water source recently lost pressure.

CNX Resources suspended fracking operations from its Shaw 1G well, a deep Utica well on the northwestern side of Beaver Run Reservoir, because of a “pressure anomaly” observed last week, the Canonsburg-based energy company said ..."

There just playing pin the tail on the donkey.

This is going to be a BIG deal once the mainstream media, fracktivists and the anti-fossil fuel crowd get wind of it. It is unfortunate for the gas patch that one driller might have tried to cut corners, and the 'accident' is going to set things back for all of the E&Ps.

Bullfrex - are you saying this won`t be a quick or easy fix?   What will the short term and long term effect be for CNX?   What will happen to this well now?

I am afraid I have little knowledge of the gas well workings and how this will shake out. I hope it is positive for those involved.

My concern is the 'propaganda' that will be spun from this incident....not good for the industry in the long run- just more ammunition for the Anti-fracking folks to impede and legislate new constraints for PA E&Ps.

"Utica shale gas well in Washington Township contained

... Well “killing” operations on Shaw 1G well in Washington Township began at about 5 p.m. Monday and were completed by 11 p.m. ... Killing involves pumping heavy mud and cement into the well, essentially sealing it off.

“We are still evaluating next steps for the Shaw 1G well and the other three wells on that pad,” CNX spokesman Brian Aiello said, noting well drilling was completed Jan. 5 and fracking started the next day. ... "

=============
I doubt any penalty the DEP might impose would approach the cost to CNX of the loss of one - and possibly 3 more - wells. 

The story as written is confusing to me....two different folks having issues with SWEPI, but it seems the DEP has ruled no foul in the case of contaminated water, while the other about a cancelled bonus payment on a lease is going to be settled by the courts.

The second story, it is not clear who was to pay the bonus amount; East or Shell.

It does seem that the lease language in our case, at least, does specify that the lease is not in effect until the bonus is paid. Sounds like East wanted to save their cash about the time the sale to SWEPI was being considered.

I feel bad for these folks, but not certain from the information given, that they are going to prevail. 

Legal contingency basis cases.
