I know when we have an 80 year old oil well, its an absolute treat to workover.
Cars barely last 15 years, imagine if it was buried in the ground for 15 years what the metal would look like.
I know if the government really did their job they would force them to properly abandon the disaster water well that probably now has swiss cheese for casing. I bet a half million dollars wouldn't cover abandoning that well to oilfield standards. They have probably fataed up that aquifer using a well that old. Introduced bacteria from surface.
If you are looking at an acreage and there is an 80 year old water well you do not buy that property.
Give me the location, we can pull the water well report, I can look at the closest well, when it was fracced and where and with what. easy peasy.

I am typically on your side but the "poor me" ( or oil industry) tone to this paragraph is ridiculous. Half a million to abandon a water well...These infidiles with their 80 year old well ruining the aquifer. You sound just like the clowns that are slagging the fracing process.
