Murphy, on Drilling

Them:

We can't drill our way out of this.

Me:

Not with that attitude, we can't.

BS, I will get more info this week. Promise. you've been incredibly patient. Yup, yup, yup. I can tell you this: A couple of days ago the latest well, the most northern one on the map, did not appear to be tied into the pipeline. It's difficult to tell the progress that is being made on the pipeline itself. I will produce a few pics before the week is out. Also, in the last few days, a number of tractor-trailers carrying large containers (storage boxes?) have gone by the house. I intend to find out where they went.

Also, the map confuses me because I thought there were several other wells that were Nornews on the land of a farmer about five miles from here. The location would be east or northeast of the northernmost well on the map. Maybe it's another company, but I was under the impression that it was Nornew.

There may be Nornew wells further north than these: http://tinyurl.com/3l28cz
thats because this map only has the newest wells from 2007/2008. Do you think i should add all Nornew wells to one map?

I believe the containers are a part of fracking eq. it would be very interesting to get fotos and more info from a Nornew well being fracked.

Nornew is also more active now west in the state. Now Nornew has 2 Theresa wells drilled to TD, one of those is to be kicked at 5000 ft and drilled directional. 3 more applications is pending.
Here is a map of the Theresa wells:

BS, I'll leave the map-making decisions to you. BTW, how are you so well-informed on Nornew's activities? Do you have relevant experience or are you just a savvy investor?

What's "fracking?"

I mean, I could look it up in about 3 seconds, but that wouldn't be any fun...

Typically, hydraulic fracturing involves
high-pressure injection of fluids and sand to fracture rock forma-
tions, prop the fractures open with sand, to enable more oil or
gas to flow to the well.

OK, BS, I've got a few pictures for you, which I'll be happy to post once you answer my question. How come you to be so knowledgeable about the drilling processes?

Searching the Internet.
I don't invest in a company unless i understand what they are doing and how they are making money. I have no education neither in oil, economic, or language. My first (and only) language is Norwegian.
I have been a Norse Energy shareholder since late 2005.
It started like a hobby but now its more like an obsession.
My main investment is NEC, now i have taken a little position in TRANSEURO ENERGY CORP. This is for maybe 1 week or a couple of months.
TSU awaits Ukraine Drilling Update-Karlavskoye 101 Well. Risky business.

I strongly believe that we can help each other with info that otherwise could be difficult to get.

Take a look at the map on this

BS,

1) Great map
2) Good that you are branching out and adding a second stock to your portfolio.
3) Norwegian is your only language? How do you read english web pages and make comments in English? They are nearly flawless.
4) You're a welcome addition to this blog. Thanks for all your input.
5) I'll get a few pictures up this evening.

"I don't invest in a company unless i understand what they are doing and how they are making money."

Wait, so, you mean you don't take into account the need of the companies you invest in? What about social justice? AIDS? Are you really that narrow-minded?!

Just kidding, by the way.
