No, you're wrong.
Here's the story: “fracking,” a now nearly 70-year-old process to pump water, sand, and additives into tight reservoirs to break up the rock and allow hydrocarbons to flow. Mitchell’s ultimate breakthrough, in 1998, came from changing the recipe of those additives. The cause: one of the company’s vendors accidentally applied the wrong mix. The oil business is science. But, as Zuckerman documents well, it’s also a lot of trial and error and a bit of luck.
Mitchell’s company’s drilling formula made shale gas wells profitable
Get it now?
Yes. I recommend a better source. One who A) understands the difference between drilling and completions, B) understands the history of shale gas development itself rather than the Texans view of it and C) Kung Fu panda was right.
Sorry. You need better source material.
