  1. Horizontal Drilling Video http://www.lario.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=8&Itemid=111 http://www.swn.com/mediaroom/pages/Player_640_360.htm?video=%2Fmediaroom%2FVideo%2Fhsd.flv

  2. Eagle Ford Shale

  3. (Hint: There Are a Few) Controversies

  4. Shale Gas & Oil Controversies • Methane in water wells • Water consumption • Groundwater contamination by HF • Fracture fluid additives • Surface spills at well pads • Well blowouts • Induced seismic effects • Flowback and produced water management • Deep injection well disposal • Atmospheric emissions • Health impacts • Methane emissions, greenhouse gas issues • Community impacts

  5. Community Impacts: A Partial List • Atmospheric emissions & health impacts • Increased traffic • Impacts on roads • Increased noise • Aesthetic effects – short and long term • Need for well pad setbacks • Economic impacts (beneficial) • “Energy boom” effects • Population growth - outpacing infrastructure • Home value & rent increases • Emergency services • Health care • School populations
