Hi, my name is Joe. I own a large acreage in the middle of Samsons Hawk Springs project. They have just finished thumping all of my ground. It is encouraging to here some of the optimism on this forum for Samson and this project. The landmen that we talk to continually downplay the project as "Sketchy or 50/50 chance of hitting anything". Many of my neighbors have actually SOLD all of their mineral interests to outside companies fearing that no oil will be produced. Keep up the great dialog! Its great to read.
Thankyou

Fracking is a contentious issue in the US around (possible) contamination of the ground water resources. See the doco "Gasland", and one lawsuit I know of in the US (was in that region a few months ago).http://dailyposted.com/us/lawsuit-gas-drilling-fluid-ruined-pa-water-wells-ap-7378.htmlThanks guys, As for what I see happening, I have a friend who drives a water truck hauling water to the drill rigs for CHK. He says that they have drilled either four or five holes. The drilling rigs are continually working, drilling one hole then moving to another location and drilling another. None of the holes have been fracture stimulated yet. Maybe waiting for a frac rig, i don't really know. I hear that the game being played is that they are moving forward with drilling the field but not pumping anything yet because there is still acreage unleased in the area and the moment they pump anything they only have six months before the oil and gas commision forces them to report production numbers. CHK, however, is aquiring easements from my friends out there for a pipeline to tie into some of the oil and gas mainlines in the area. As for Samson, they say that they are planning to start drilling somewhere around the last week of Feb or first week in March tenatively. The only reason I know this is because I was trying to work out a deal with them to supply drilling and frac water for them.

It's interesting how the oil/gas companies that use this practice are exempt from the Energy Act and Clean Water Act. Why would this need to be so if there wasn't an issue?

LOL. Oil what oil?
It's going to be a busy day on the ASX today for SSN, and about freaking time.
This is just the beginning though.
Plenty more in the tank for SSN in 2011

Good on ya Slipperz all those days of having a chat to yourself on the forum are now a distant memory - I hope ST it holds but LT still has great fundamentals - now we wait for management to reveal what it has been up to. Thanks for your posts and commitment to keeping us informed. I am taking a break from posting until we get more news from the company. Once again thanks.
