EQT Hits Back at Greene Co. Landowners Claiming Water Contamination

This post is to catch you up on the latest developments in a class action lawsuit related to a frac-out, or “inadvertent return” that happened when EQT Corp. drilled a well in Greene County, PA, in 2022 (see Possible Frac-Out Reported at EQT Well Site in Greene County, PA). A frac-out happens when drilling mud pops out of places where it’s not supposed to — places outside the borehole being drilled. People living in the area claim EQT ruined their drinking water. EQT recently filed a motion asking the court to declare the landowners "in contempt" for refusing to share the data their "experts" claim to have that supposedly shows a connection between EQT's drilling and fouled water supplies.
