Fracking News

Blowout in Eagle Ford Shale

November 11, 2011 By TXsharon

A news station just called me because they are trying to find out the operator on a well that’s been blowing out for several hours in the Eagle Ford Shale in Westhoff, TX. It’s about a mile south of 87 on FM 2816. From the RRC GIS map, it looks like a Petrohawk well.

    Funny that some states require by Law that operators of wells post emergency contact info on a sign nearby the operation. The cost of clean up & repair of one needlessly extended well blowout could pay for hundreds of info signs.

    Cheapskates.

    […] This was reported as a blowout. Then today, reporters were pulled off the story because their editor was told it was only a normal, scheduled release. […]
