1,000 HORSEPOWER
These 1,000 horsepower drilling rigs have typically
been drilling down over 1-1/4 miles (6,700 feet) and
then horizontally over 1/2 mile (3,000 feet) to reach
Marcellus Shale gas

Hopefully these pipes won't be carrying any recycled wastewater which has caused fish kills in Washington County due to pipe leaks. Installing backflow preventers would help ensure safer results.
