[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1418134, member: 6291"] Ohio, and that area is the Utica Shale. Massive amounts of natural gas and liquids. That is why I said I will never see NG prices climb in my lifetime. TC, that is what I use to do, and still do to some extent. My dad gauges wells and I'm a supervisor on the production/ completion side. It is my job to make sure the gaugers are doing what needs to be done to prevent that situation. In the event it does happen, I make it right, and do every thing possible to prevent it again. IMO, that is completely unacceptable and you have every right to drop the hammer on them. If you have talked to the gaugers, talked to the foreman and nothing has happened.... call there corporate and ask if they have a spill report number or contact you need to report a spill... and specify you do not want to talk to that local foreman again. When you get some one on the phone get their name, title, phone number and email address right off the bat. That will be a red flag. Explain that you have contacted these other people and have gotten no resolution. Specifically say you are doing this as a courtesy to let the handle it internally before you go to you state agency. If they say they will take care of it let them you know will be sending them an email with a picture attached and you would like them to reply with a time frame in which it will be handled. If you have a land man that you dealt with that might be a good start also. If they give you any grief, tell them flat out you are going to build a house and offer it free of rent to your local agency just so they can wake up every single morning and check those wells to start the day since they refuse to get a gauger who will. Get a game camera on this wells so you can document how frequent it is checked. That will go to prove neglegence rather than the accident plea. Let me know if I an help in any other way. That makes me so furious because you have a nice place and your local foreman thinks he is above the rules. He gives all of us a bad name. As a supervisor I would be making heads roll if a land owner sent that to me. [/QUOTE]
