Natural Gas, Drilling Fluids Spewing From Clearfield County Well

Gas Well Leak - June 4, 2010

Updated: 1:09 pm EDT June 4, 2010

CLEARFIELD COUNTY, Pa. -- Pennsylvania environmental officials said natural gas and polluted drilling water are pouring from an out-of-control well in rural Clearfield County.A one-mile radius of Moshannon State Forest was evacuated Friday morning after a gas well ruptured near the Punxsutawney Hunting Club.The leak happened at a Marcellus drilling operation on McGeorge Road in the forest. The gas well is owned by EOG Resources Inc., officials said.Around 10:30 a.m., officials were checking camps to make sure all campers were evacuated around the site of the leak. Officials said they were dealing with gas leaking into the air.According to state Rep. Bud George's office, initial reports from Process Equipment Manufacturers' Association said three of four wells were secured. The other well was releasing frack water and unignited wet gas, which caused the evacuation. Officials said an estimated 1 million gallons of frack water was uncontrolled as of 11 a.m. in the area of exit 111 on Interstate 80.Hydraulic fracturing or "fracking" is the process of blasting millions of gallons of water deep underground to break up the shale and release the gas. Most of the frack water stays underground, but what comes up must be treated or disposed of in approved facilities.In addition to the Emergency Management Agency and Department of Environmental Protection, teams from Texas were called to help control the situation and a command trailer was set up.Pennsylvania Department of Transportation officials said a portion of Route 153/Forestry Road was closed to traffic but there were no other major road closures.According to the Associated Press, Department of Environmental Protection spokesman Dan Spadoni said no one has been reported injured and the drilling water hasn't reached a waterway. The Federal Aviation Administration issued a flight restriction in the immediate area shortly after 11 a.m. Spadoni said the accident happened late Thursday night when unexpectedly high gas pressure in the newly drilled well prevented crews from containing it. He said emergency crews have been at the scene all morning and companies that specialize in out-of-control wells are on site. He says there are no homes within a mile.Stay with WJACTV.com and WJAC-TV News for continuing coverage as details become available.
