The utility is attempting to intersect and then plug the leaking well before the end of February, according to Jimmie Cho, senior vice president of Gas Operations and System Integrity. Cho said that once the target well is intercepted, operations will shift from drilling to pumping heavy fluids and drilling mud into the well to stop the flow of natural gas.
