[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row animation=””][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]We have recently commissioned a new documentary about hydraulic fracturing called Down Deep. It’s the fracking movie that simply must be seen because it presents the real facts on the process in a way that’s easy to understand. We also have a featured video of the week that provides our followers a sneak peek inside our company culture, executive leadership, operations, our talented people and our community involvement.
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row animation=””][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]Don’t forget to tell others about the @DownDeepFilm. Help spread the truth about hydraulic fracturing and how it’s a key piece of America’s energy security.  The goal is to educate, inform and set the record straight about one of the great technology marvels of our time.  It’s worth a watch!
