Dart Energy are trying to drill a coal bed methane (CBM) exploration well at their fracking site in Daneshill, Sutton cum Lound near Retford in North Nottinghamshire (Bassetlaw). With a drilling rig now onsite, the local community there is in need of support now. A camp has been set up outside the site and people are resisting Dart’s plans, including an occupation of the drilling rig which shut it down for a day. See Dart Frack Attack: New Midlands Multi-Well Program for more information about Dart’s drilling program in the Midlands. The fracking site in plantations south of Daneshill Road near Sutton cum Lound (see map below). For updates from the site see the Latest News feed.
