There is so much going on I have not had time to blog. Next week is Ritchie Bros Auction. You know I won’t miss it. You never know when a bargin my go by. This rain has really been great, we needed it bad. I never thought that I would like seeing lighting striks so close but if that means rain bring it on. Life is like a Barnett Trend you never know what you will get.

The fresh water reservoir has been a success, we started allowing water loading and had 140 trucks the first day. Somedays no trucks somedays lots of trucks. We have 5 seperate draw pipes plus a 2000 GPM overhead standpipe. All weather access and 24hr a days service. The 1.2 million gal reservior can be recharged twice daily to the tune of 50,00o barrels per day. We are schedule to upgrade our video surveillance by the end of the month. All of this right in the middle of the Barnett Shale.

1 Most people think of a Barrel being 55 gals, is this true for the Oilfield? 2. Saltwater is common in the ocean but why does it appear inland. 3. All water has some chlorides, What constitutes being saltwater. The quickest person with the proper answers wins a choice of Oilfield Trash Part 2 tee shirt or Ball cap. At the Dinersarus Truck Stop Glen Rose Tx. Bonus question? Here in Texas we have true north and magnetic north, is true north east or west of magnetic north?

There is nothing wrong with a Fix as long as you are in on it.

Well my sources tell me that Bronco Drilling out of OK City now ownes Total Transport. Total just put a new Yard in on 67 west of Bono. I find it interesting that Chesapeake and Bronco are from the same neck of the woods. Maybe same thing?

Howard come by the Dinersarsus Resaurant and ask for Lislie and she will fix you up.

I guess Steelers will take a win anyway they can get one. I sure hate that the ref’s had to help them win. Seattle never got a holding call until they made a TD or a play inside the redzone. And calling Hasselback for a low block when he was making a tackle showed everyone which way it was going to go. I have no preference for either team, but fair is fair should but doesn’t apply to Superbowls. I’ll bet the owner of the Seahawks, with all his money and drive will not rollover on this one. I would not like to be the Zebras that called those bias calls. Oh that long and faithful circle will come around.

1. Where does The formation Barnett Shale get it’s name? 2. To date where have the thickest layer of Barnett shale been located? 3. What is the actual color of the Barnett shale. 4. Is it true that if you lite a piece of Barnett shale it would burn? (Who ever get the correct answers quickest wins a Chicken Fried Steak at the Dinersarus Diner @ Glen Rose.) My treat.
