INEOS counter demos

Ineos are holding “Community Engagement” meetings across Scotland. This public relations exercise dreamt up by Ineos is intended to convince residents that fracking is a good idea. Ineos want to open the door for drilling across the Central Belt and have plans to buy more licences and drill thousands of wells across the UK.

The British Geological Survey has released figures estimating the amount of gas fracking companies could produce if the Midland Valley of Scotland was industrialised. Based on average well-production figures from the U.S. you can calculate that to get the amount of gas the BGS say is recoverable would erequire 7000 fracking wells in Scotland.
