A little off the subject, but you have answers.

Here in SW Pa there seems to be a well every half mile or so ... pretty close IMO.

are these directional wells ?

If so ... is one deeper than another and etc, thereby getting maximum "coverage" from a small area ... i.e. ... #1 is a half mile deep before turning ... #2 is 3/4 mi and turns maybe 30 degrees from #1 ... #3 is 1 mile and directional is 30 degrees from #2 ..... etc.

So if you spy down from above you see a "ray" of directionals

Or am I inventing things ?

They can do just about anything with directional drilling.
