Yes they'd pay for the barn, but given directional drilling technology it's almost impossible that they'd have to do that the "holes" can be angled in from sometimes as far away as a few miles. IF they HAD to do it some guy in houston with a spreadsheet would plug in the barns cost and say drill/no drill in a few minutes. Hell, they might have a APP for that.
