Oh no! Rig is on location and landowner denies access

Landowner denies access to planned water source. Rigging up now should be filling pits.

What is the Section/Township/Range?

Two cranes rig is going up pretty quickly.

They might raise Derrick tonight.

Water situation negative.

“A watched pot never boils”… too much attention might be bad luck?

Rigging up apace. Still no water.

Lots of truck traffic. Road is breaking up.

They will just find water from another farmer and haul it in, feel bad for the farmer that didn’t take the deal, great way for us farmers to make some money.

Hence my comment yesterday… your monitoring the site extensively is looking like it’s bad luck… problems yesterday, problems today… let the process take place and hope for a big outcome!

Yes Bob, but they need 23 million gallons to frac.

How many acre-feet is that?

Rick: He only wants to blow off steam. Only 189,000 people on the planet (8.1 billion) contracted silicosis in 2019. He has a better chance of dying in a car wreck this week. But hey, there’s still a chance.

Google says 1 acre-foot = 325,850.943 gallons US

Rig Ued rig 2 is surprisingly quiet

Did the Landowner allow access? Was the operator in compliance?

Only drilled for 4 of last 24 hours. Wasn’t drilling smooth. Trip out drill trip out. Now going back in.

Is that always the case, that royalty owners own the pond (water in the pond) even though they don’t own the land around the pond?

By the math they can only pump frac and excess noise limits 10 hours per day plus the particulate limits
