Butler County Gassed - Feb 2013

2/15/2013

 
Picture
The map of gas activity in Butler County may be found on the website of  FracTracker Alliance.  Although FrackTracker does a wonderful job of tracking this activity, new well permits, SPUDS (start of drilling), and violations in Butler are coming fast and furious.  To help you appreciate the number and rapidity of this activity, a new section of the MOB Newsletter will be devoted to reporting the activity that has occurred since the last Newsletter.  For this initial reporting, the activity occurring to date in 2013 is provided.

*****************************

In Butler County to date in 2013, the PA Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) Oil and Gas Management website shows that 19 permits were issued for establishing wells and SPUDs (start drilling). The list below includes the date, name of the well (usually designated by the landowner), activity, township, operator, and Department of Environmental Protection API number.  Note that a well pad often has more than one wells, designated as separate “units” and are reported separately.  These are the separate horizontal wells or laterals drilled and each must have its own vertical well drilled.
