Is Europe Ready for Unconventional Gas?
Session Time: 16:00 - 17:00
- Why bother to explore and spend sums on E&P if the industry is just going to get banned by the EU?
- How can European regulators and governments be persuaded that the technology here is different to that in the USA and that our environment will be safe?
- Is it more logical for producers to only develop in regions where there is plentiful shale gas but less regulatory constraints (such as in China, India, Ukraine)? And do we even need shale production when new pipelines will begin supplying within 10 years?
