KOG And Flaring; Some Dots To Connect; WMB Suspends Investment In NG Pipeline From The Marcellus-Utica

Three dots to connect:
Motley Fool weighs in.

In this Motley Fool article, the contributor is bullish on KOG, but doesn't mention the flaring issue.

By the way that second Motley Fool article says:
Whether you trust him or not, Continental Resources does control 1.2 million net acres in the Bakken and was also the first company to discover the Parshall shale in North Dakota. 
I thought it was EOG who made the Parshall discovery that started the Bakken boom in North Dakota. Not taking anything away from Harold Hamm who quietly bought up a lot of leases over the years prior to the boom, but I thought it was EOG who had the "discovery" well as it were. But, the Bakken has any number of drillers who say they were first.

Williams Cos suspends investment in Bluegrass NGL Pipeline due to insufficient customer commitments: Co announces it has suspended capital investments in the Bluegrass Pipeline, a proposed natural-gas-liquids project, primarily in response to an insufficient level of firm customer commitments.

  • The project, in which Williams is a joint-venture partner, is designed to connect natural gas liquids produced in the Marcellus-Utica areas in the U.S. Northeast with domestic and export markets in the U.S. Gulf Coast.
