Drilling on Stratton's Landscaping Done - Derrick Moved Next to Purse Funeral Home

After about 2 weeks of drilling on the property of Stratton Landscaping between Heritage Park and M52, the specialized derrick for horizontal drilling was disassembled on Monday, and just moved across Beaver Creek Howell Highway to the property of Purse Funeral Home, where a "christmas tree" capped the bore hole from a previous - supposably unsuccessful conventional drill.

Drilling Derrick on Stratton's last Saturday (June 1).


Intensive grading to prepare for more drilling also on Saturday, June 1 on the Purse Funeral Home Site. Note the "christmas tree" capping the old bore hole.

Yesterday morning, the special derrick for horizontal drilling was swiftly moved just across Beaver Creek and Howell Highway to the new drill site at the Purse Funeral Home.


The derrick arrived on the Purse Site on Tuesday, June 4th 10:27 EDT.

And was setup within a couple of hours. The first two pictures are from around 11:30 am, just an hour after the last 2 pictures.


And was soon erected.

At 4:30 pm yesterday, the derrick looked almost functional..




An hour later (6/4/2013 at 5:22 pm).


And today (6/5/2013) at 10:50 am.
