Site Selection

You are here > Home > Environment > Drilling and Production > Site Selection

We carefully consider each well location. After a lease agreement is signed, Chesapeake will evaluate its geological information combined with its leasehold position in the area before selecting a location to drill.

Many factors go into selecting a drillsite, including geography and topography; location of access roads, pipelines and utilities; available water sources; and proximity to schools, sensitive wildlife habitat or significant archaeological sites.​​​
