What is wrong with O&G?
• There is a lot of it.
• There will be more of it.
• The process is fragmented.
• Many small sources, not subject to permitting.

Drilling
• Very large diesel engines (500-1500 hp)
• Going to year-round operation
• Going to multiple wells off a single pad

Testing
• Post “Fracting”
• Large quantities of water
• “Free” flow to determine drawdown
• CO, NOx, possible SO2 emissions
