Additional environmental concerns stem from the technology’s implications for water resources. Hydraulic fracturing of a single horizontal well can involve injection of millions of gallons of a 98% ...

conducted a 30-stage hydraulic fracturing (FRACKING) using Plug and Perf technology at a new horizontal well of the Priobskoye field. This made it possible to increase the launch flow rate of oil by 2 ...

Like fracking, horizontal drilling was invented decades ... was that the fractures that allowed oil and gas to reach the well bore could also allow oil, gas, and chemicals to seep into the water ...

Mr Dennett had applied for an interim injunction preventing Cuadrilla from fracking the UK's first horizontal shale gas well. Judith Moritz shows us around one of the UK's first horizontal ...

Cementing in horizontal wells in some unconventional reservoirs could also make fracturing difficult by forcing fracture treatments to be pumped through perforations. With the introduction of non ...
