Come hear more about the science behind gas drilling. February 1, 2012 at 6:30 pm at the Enfield Elementary School, 20 Enfield Main Road.
Presentation by: Anthony R. Ingraffea, Ph.D., P.E. - Dwight C. Baum Professor of Engineering Weiss Presidential Teaching Fellow Cornell University.
Dr. Ingraffea's topic will be: Unconventional Gas Development: Myths and Realities. He will explore some myths and realities concerning large-scale development of the unconventional gas resource in the Marcellus and other shales deposits in the Northeast. On a local scale, these concern geological aspects of shale gas development and the resulting development and use of directional drilling, high-volume slickwater hydraulic fracturing, multi-well clustered pad arrangements, and the impacts of these technologies on was production and disposal.
