Cabot Oil & Gas said it has a rig on location to begin plugging three producing natural gas wells in the Marcellus Shale play in Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania, after regulators said the wells were polluting groundwater sources.

摘要

Cabot reports that the wells should be plugged within two weeks. The company maintains that it has done nothing wrong, adding that studies of methane migration have not shown that Cabot wells are responsible. The company added that it would accept responsibility "as a business decision."
