We do that for the drilling process as well as the completion process, to ensure that nothing will touch the landowner’s property.
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row animation=””][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]We devote substantial time and resources to minimize the impact of our operations on the land and communities where we operate.  By using cutting-edge technology, such as three-dimensional seismic mapping and horizontal drilling, we are able to drill for natural gas with an accurate depiction of the targeted geological formations below.  This allows exploration teams to identify natural gas prospects and space wells more efficiently and effectively.  In addition to the strategic use of seismic data, geographical and topographical aspects of each site are carefully evaluated to determine the best place to locate a well.  One pad is designed for multiple wells to reduce the number of pads required for optimal land use.  Another benefit to multiple well pad sites is the reduction in road traffic due to less frequent drilling rig mobilizations.
