Gas Well Rupture Forces Mile-Wide Evacuation In PA

The Pittsburgh Channel reports that an explosion at a gas well in the
Marcellus Shale, has forced a mile-wide evacuation in Clearfield
County, PA. The irony of this event occurring even as CNBC shows some
guy mopping up oil with hay from a bucket is beyond sublime. Also, so
much for clear energy. There are no details as yet which company's
well was responsible for the explosion, although there are is one
junk-bond laden firm which comes to mind. Update: the gas well
operator is EOG. Update 2: Elizabeth Ivers, a spokeswoman for driller
EOG Resources, said the well has been brought under control, just
about 16 hours after it started spewing gas. Spadoni said no one was
injured and there are no homes within a mile of the well.

   Natural gas and drilling fluids are spewing from an
out-of-control well in Clearfield County.

   Emergency officials said a mile-wide area has been evacuated
after an operation drilling into the Marcellus Shale ruptured on
Friday. The FAA has issued a flight restriction in the immediate area.

   According to a news release from the Pennsylvania Emergency
Management Agency, a well which was in the frack process ruptured in
Clearfield, spilling frack water and unignited wet gas.

   Frack water is water mixed with other substances used during
drilling. According to PEMA, the well is six miles from State Route 153
in the area of Interstate 80 exit 111.

Pretty soon Obama will need a doppelganger for the daily teleprompter
updates from both Louisiana and Pennsylvania, in which he disburses
daily doses of ineffectual harsh language.
