I was wondering from the "experts"....how many gallons of water does it take for a frac job with 8 perforations? I was told 150,000. That sounds low, but I have no idea.

Iwas told 3 to 8 million
That is what I was reading. So would that be 150,000 gal per perforation? That will still be only 1.2 million gallons.
i was advised it would take 90,000 barrels............or 2.88 million gallons........... i was told "they" will pay the land owner, water suppler .25 per barrel..............$22,500 per well.................i would hope one could get mooooor!

I would think if from a well, shouldn't others in that section also be given some kind of compensation due to it likely being sucked out from underneath them as well? I mean if they were sucking NG, they'd have to pay everybody, right? Why not for water?
