This theorem is factually accurate for activity at the well during drilling, where there are Company men and Consultants on site who may give a damn.
Drilling is but one small part of the well's lifetime, and there are many opportunities for loss of methane during the service of wells and delivery of product.
That said, you have to get your energy from one dirty source or another. Methane is much less toxic than burning black coal, and I re-peat, burning lignite is re-tarded.
Indeed. The most talented hands-on guy probably feels like this is a total waste of his valuable time.
Truth be told, he is quite likely more valuable to the company not attending bs meetings, too.
But for whatever reason, corporate evolution has been nearly lockstep on this issue across trades and specialties: that political/social part of the company exists, even flourishes. Hopefully, they're really doing something proactive.
Underground electrical is more expensive to install.
Underground burial greatly reduces heat transfer from transmission lines, as the surrounding earth eventually becomes a saturated heat sink.
Underground repairs are more common and more expensive than aerial repairs, so unless freezing rain is a seasonal issue, it doesn't pay once the initial investment is surrendered.
Underground service lines are not free of problems, and fail with more frequently due to lightning strike and flooding.
Legacy lines are mostly overhead, so we're talking massive outlays of money to rebuild a new grid.
I think you're onto something, even though the summary's premise is a bit of an over-generalization. It's a different level of care and concern when an individual has a stake in ownership and presumably profit sharing.
There is an inverse proportion of managers who place the company's well being above their own the larger that company becomes. Not everyone's give-a-shitter is broken at even the largest outfits, but an entrepreneurial engineer managing his/her own baby is properly incentivized.
It also strikes me that the most talented often come with quirks like doesn't play well with others.
One of the downsides of above-average intelligence is a propensity to discount contributions and/or suggestions from those cerebrally challenged.
The truth is, you can learn something from everyone, and an expert in a specific field with an IQ approaching his body temperature knows some stuff that you do not.
Half full disclosure: I am not a pumpkin launch from being employed as a white collar worker in a gargantuan retail corporation.
That confessed, I will kiss the pimples on your canine's derriere if everybody in the retail business isn't making certain they're not the next target.
While influential unions are infamous to a near mythical degree for protecting mediocre tradesmen, their real strength lies in the ability to bottleneck the number of skilled tradesmen for a particular task in a given location.
There were a couple of generations after WWII where one could argue they became unnecessary, even tainted by organized crime in some circumstances. Current trends toward employment in jobs with subsistence wages, like any job in retail, make a case for the resurrection of worker's unions. These days, I am afraid the manufacturers of the World have virtually collectively decided the Western standard of living has become unacceptable to them.
I find it funny (funny strange not funny ha-ha) elite earning athletes have collective bargaining agreements, and people who work at Walmart qualify for government benefits.
This is what I was thinking - what if the builder's bricks were falling out because the mortar he used was bad?
It's still his baby. Chances are, the bricklayer or his general contractor provided the mortar, and a majority of the serious masonry outfits mix their own with Portland cement and truckload sand because it's much cheaper than the homeowner store bagged premix.
If there is a common quality amongst successful contractors, it is that they share a general presumption that things will seldom ever go perfectly. The folks who continue to stay in business learn to factor things going wrong into the costing process.
As covered earlier in this thread by another, coders are not paid a reservoir wage.
The problem with the wait until a plane crash formula is that during the congressional hearings, prior knowledge of a threat should be enough to kill the career of a bureaucrat.
Proactive overreaction is how your government has been conditioned to respond.
Realistic concerns like budgetary constraints are foreign to them.
The anti-counterfeiting technology implementation for currency was delayed, in part, by lobbying companies involved in vending.
Increased expenditures for new card readers and technology has been rebuffed universally because the retailers aren't typically the ones out of the cash when a fraudulent credit card is used.
The Target breach was a large enough embarrassment to light the fuel under the motivational bonfire.

I can also infer from your soberly coherent posting skills that a man of your intellectual prowess is above such base behavior.
Ergo, I read the ass-ass as a double negative, implying reverance and not scorn.
Are you three guys here or on strike this week?
Thank goodness our people in government employ are often less crafty than that.
If they were more competent, mass surveillance might still be a tin-hatter conspiracy theory.

This technology will be co-opted and otherwise downright available to the TLA government agencies.

Am I alone in being utterly terrified at this trend in research?
I am, too neither, excited by the prospect of a return to electro-shock therapy as a correctional therapy for antisocial behavior.
The bar measuring proactive social behavior moves around too often for that shit.
The truth is, you can learn something from everyone, and an expert in a specific field with an IQ approaching his body temperature knows some stuff that you do not.
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
but these bottom-feeders are the modern day equivalent of slip and fall con men.
They wind up adding cost to everything these giants do, which will trickle down to the end consumer.
I consider anyone who eats mushrooms to have suspect decision making processes.
So you're antifungal?
UC2 much.
Cheese and rice, fella, I'd rather read a frostie piss or a betabitch post that your excrement.

After Sochi, comedians and internet posting wizards such as yourself would run out of material if we straightened out over here in The Colonies.
Why would you attempt to self-identify mushrooms? There is an deadly impostor for even Psilocybe (conocybe).

Wow. You couldn't make it one day.
Increased expenditures for new card readers and technology has been rebuffed universally because the retailers aren't typically the ones out of the cash when a fraudulent credit card is used.
The Target breach was a large enough embarrassment to light the fuel under the motivational bonfire.
And generally, people who can do math this well aren't using it to save a buck on bus fares.
This just isn't news for the folks who read here regularly.
Reaching Joe Six Pack is what this comes down to, and the cynic in me says that ship has already sailed.
