WELL PLUGGING
WHY WE PLUG
WE LOVE OIL AND GAS
Largely because of cheap, portable, efficient energy, the past 200 years have perhaps seen more innovation in health, technology, and economics than the previous 2,000 combined. In terms of benefit to humanity, oil and gas may be the best medicine ever discovered.
BUT OIL AND GAS HAS SIDE EFFECTS
Abandoned oil and gas wells can pollute the soil, air, and water our families live on or consume.
At least 4.6 million people live within a mile of an orphan well. At least 17.6 million people live within a mile of an active well.
That’s a lot of people. Let’s narrow it down to one: You. You or someone you know gets water from a water well that’s within a mile of an oil and gas well. If left abandoned, the casing in those oil and gas wells could corrode, erasing the barrier between the chemicals in those wells and the water you drink.
THAT'S A PROBLEM WE CAN SOLVE
At Hay Creek, we feel called to steward the land and to benefit our friends, families, and neighbors who live on it. We're not activists; we just act. By plugging wells quickly and reliably, we ensure our communities get the benefits of oil and gas without the side effects.
