<p>Skip, you're confusing shut-in due to offset-frac-interference (OFI) with repressurization. OFI is for safety (blowout & release) mitigation and monitoring. It reduces little the chance for communication since the lowering of drained area pressure has already happened. Repressurization of the parent well with water or nitrogen on the other hand is sometimes used to do as you described to increase the probability of the new frac in the child well targeting new rock. </p>

<p>And communication doesn't always reduce production in the older well unless it is totally inundated (killed) due to frac water and/or sand infiltration into the well bore. On the contrary, frac hits often increase parent well production but this is always to the detriment of the child well. </p> Greg, there are a number of e…tag:gohaynesvilleshale.com,2020-01-26:2117179:Comment:38817602020-01-26T16:48:39.554ZSkip Peel - Mineral Consultanthttps://gohaynesvilleshale.com/profile/ilandman
<p>Greg, there are a number of elements to the issue of job migration and IMO, EPA guidelines are far down the list or don't make it at all. The US Chamber and the Brookings Institute have an agenda which I recognize but do not agree with.

<p>Greg, there are a number of elements to the issue of job migration and IMO, EPA guidelines are far down the list or don't make it at all. The US Chamber and the Brookings Institute have an agenda which I recognize but do not agree with. The position they take is no surprise and consistently disregards the most important factors in favor of supporting a political agenda. The USA Today article is instructive of how business often chooses to avoid regulations by going overseas. Quite often that is to bolster their bottom line at the expense of the safety of their customers, employees and the public at large. Here is a more comprehensive and less bias source on the subject.</p>

I am pretty sure the post was deleted after I gave my side of the story. I have since decided to go elsewhere to get news most of the time. I check in periodically because there is good information from many people. This site is like when I was in grade school or high school with the "hype" and BS that some constantly display. I am not mentioning any names but I am sure that most of you can take 1 wild guess who it was. I truly and really wanted to be a part of a this site and support Keith M.. (the owner).... but hey... we have "free speech"... and for that, I can't stand this one other person (a land man). That he constantly blabs, blahs, and has total disregard for others. (IMO) It's like the old saying, "it's my way or the highway" .. Anyway , I'm done.. maybe speak up after another 10 years! </p>

<p>Greg, gas from "your" well goes into a gathering system pipeline We may be able to tell you where it goes from there by knowing the section-township-range location of your well.</p>
<p>When a new well is fracked in relatively close proximity to an existing, producing well that well is shut in. As the fractures expand out from the well bore of the new well it may be drawn to the low pressure area around the older well lateral. By shutting that older well in the operator hopes to reduce the chances of "communication" between the two frack zones. Communication is bad and reduces production in the older well. This is a serious and common problems in some basins but not so much here in the Haynesville. Although the state mandates at lease 660' between adjacent laterals, the common current spacing is 880' or six laterals per unit per landing zone. Some portion of the Haynesville Shale Basin have two landing zones, one Haynesville and one Mid-Bossier. </p>
<p>I am not familiar with the specific point in the gas stream where the odorizer is introduced. Perhaps someone else can answer that one.</p>
<p>The state requires a "directional survey" for all wells. You can find them in the state database, SONRIS. Also MWD (Measurement While Drilling) downhole tools are used in the lateral. When the well is completed, the state requires an "as drilled" plat be submitted to establish the location of the bottom hole.</p>
<p>I wasn't aware that EPA regulations moved manufacturing overseas. I thought that cheap labor was the primary driver of manufacturing moving out of the country. Could you expand on that? Maybe provide some statistics or link an article from a reputable source?</p> I would like that.

<p>I would like that. Another thing I would like to see is a weekly or monthly post to educate me in the gas industry for curiosity. Things like where does the gas go when it leaves my well? Multiple wells feed the pipelines. Does a new well cause back pressure on my well so it can not produce as much? When is mercaptan added to natural gas to give it an odor? When drilling a well how do they know where the bottom hole is and that it didn't go off course?</p>

<p>I don't follow all of the climate change fights. The US gave up all controls when the EPA made it more cost effective to move manufacturing off of our shores.</p> Thanks, JHH.

Members could, without posting in the discussion thread, signal their opinion with a thumbs up (like) button or a thumbs down (don't like) button. Keith would have to facilitate that and I don't even know if it possible. I think we had that option in previous versions of the website.</p>
