"Joe,
I know of no specific evidence. I do know that a proper cement and casing design, combined with the fact the hydrocarbons are >1 mile below the water table, is the best defense against the issues of contaminated water. As with any design or…"

You can appreciate that I have to be careful when replying to something like this. Do you have any specific questions, or are you just looking for a general overview of the practice?"

Joshua,
Understood. I am neutral on the subject since I do not have enough data to make an informed opinion, hence the curiosity. So without further adieu, a specific question: Given the anatomy of a gas well it seems that cross contamination into the aquifer stratum at any point in the extraction process may be caused by a failure of the well, whether through flaws in fabrication or design, do you know of any evidence which would be relevant to this well-failure hypothesis?
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Cheers,
Joe
Welcome to EX!
I see you are into oil and gas so I have to ask, how plugged-in are you on the fracking discussion? I am looking for well informed technical opinions and less rhetoric. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Cheers,
