Broke down

We were scheduled to leave sometime today, according to the rumor mill. But yesterday evening they dropped the wire down the well. Which is a bad thing. When I came on duty at 6am the entire site had been down all night. They are (according to the rumor mill) waiting for a bigger crane to come in.....or ......they may just move out and have the cold coil crew fix the problem..   but, there is still one frack to go before they are done.
I did find out an interesting fact. It takes approximately 320,000 pound of sand to do one frack That is about eight enclosed semi trailers full!!! And they do about 15-18 fracks per well on average.

Will let you know whats going on when we find out.
Looks like we will be moving with this crew to the next two sites. The next one is a one well site and the one after that is a three well site. It takes about a week to do one well if it is average depth of about 15-18000 foot. Hope that we stay in range of this cell tower as we have great internet here.
take care, and love to all of ya
Jim and Linda
