Blue and Green: On Tuesday 27th September, ethane from US fracking will arrive in Scotland for the first time. Campaigners from both continents attacked bosses at INEOS for their financial gain from the destructive shale gas extraction in Pennsylvania. Almost 10,000 gas wells have been drilled in Pennsylvania, with a devastating effect on local communities and the environment. One of the companies supplying INEOS with ethane from the Marcellus shale, Range Resources, has been fined millions of dollars for environmental...

France Considering Ban on Fracked Gas Imports as US Ramps Up LNG Exports to Europe
2016-05-11 15:23:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
EcoWatch: France is investigating a ban on the import of shale natural gas from the U.S. Shale gas is extracted using hydraulic fracturing, a technique banned in France since 2011. The issue arose due to contracts signed by French utilities Engie and EDF with Houston-based Cheniere Energy, which led to the import of LNG containing about 40 percent shale gas. The potential ban comes as America is ramping up its LNG exports to Europe.

Grist: The U.S. has quickly become a global fracking powerhouse, and it`s not slowing down. According to a March report from the Energy Information Administration, hydraulic fracturing now accounts for more than half of all U.S. oil output per day, compared with 2 percent in 2000. America`s 300,000 fracking wells pumped out 4.3 million barrels per day in 2015 - a staggering figure when compared to the 102,000 barrels a day in 2000. That growth has allowed the U.S. to "increase its oil production faster...
TransCanada's Next Move After Keystone XL: Flood Mexico with Fracked Gas with State Department Help
2015-11-12 22:20:15| Oil & Gas - Topix.net
TransCanada, the owner of the recently-nixed northern leg of the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline, has won a bid from Mexico's government to build a 155-mile pipeline carrying gas from hydraulic fracturing in the United States to Mexico's electricity grid. The company has benefited from Mexico's energy sector privatization promoted by the U.S. State Department , the same agency that denied a permit to the U.S.-Canada border-crossing Keystone XL.
