Bobcat Hubbard LLC applies to drill in Hubbard
Thursday, July 26, 2018
Bobcat Hubbard LLC, a subsidiary of Bobcat Energy Resources LLC, has submitted an application to drill a new wastewater injection well in Trumbull County, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources.
The well will be located just south of Hubbard-Masury Road and east of U.S. Route 62 in Hubbard Township, according to the Youngstown Business Journal.
Injection wells in Ohio are used to store contaminated wastewater generated from oil and gas drilling and hydraulic fracturing operations in the Utica and Marcellus shale plays. Much of this water is contaminated and must either be recycled or disposed of – usually through Class II injection wells.

Shale FAQ
What are mineral rights?
Mineral rights are the rights of the owner of the property to mine or produce any resources below the surface of the property. Mineral rights are different from surface rights.
Will I get free natural gas if I allow fracking on my property?
Maybe. It depends on your particular lease agreement. Some companies allow property owners a yearly free gas allowance. But, the process of connecting your property to the gas source may be more complicated. Some companies will provide a hookup, others require the landowner to provide one.
