4-26-2010: Frac Legislation?

Verify Resource Protection with the SageWatch™ Guardian System

Strategically placed wells using the SageWatch™ Guardian System can help alleviate and allay fears regarding ground water pollution and adverse fracture stimulation growth while simultaneously providing valuable reservoir data. The SageWatch™ monitoring system has the ability to transmit this data, real-time, to multiple locations for valuable stimulation containment verification. As an added benefit, SageWatch™ can be installed on the casing of producing wells to provide reservoir P/T data; negating the high expense of drilling wells for monitoring purposes only.  

While we at SageRider DO NOT support any form of legislation (State or Federal) requiring the monitoring of hydraulic fracture stimulation jobs; we DO feel this technology can allow the oil and gas industry to be proactive in this arena. Unmanageable and cost prohibitive governmental regulations will only serve to damage our industry; SageWatch™ Guardian technology can help gather the necessary information to put landowners, environmentalists, producers, and politicians on the same page.
