Fracking study finds new gas wells leak more

Associated Press: In Pennsylvania's gas drilling boom, newer and unconventional wells leak far more often than older and traditional ones, according to a study of state inspection reports for 41,000 wells. The results suggest that leaks of methane could be a problem for drilling across the nation, said study lead author Cornell University engineering professor Anthony Ingraffea, who heads an environmental activist group that helped pay for the study. The research was criticized by the energy industry. Marcellus...

Study finds shale gas and oil reserves in Scotland
2014-07-01 01:00:00| Hydrocarbons Technology
A new study by the British Geological Survey (BGS) has found that Scotland has only a modest amount of shale reserves, with 80 trillion cubic feet of shale gas and 6 billion barrels of shale oil.
Study Digs Deep on Shale Gas Wells, Methane Leaks
2014-06-30 22:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Central: Defects in fracked oil and gas wells in Pennsylvania are leading to methane leaks in shale wells throughout the state -- greenhouse gas emissions that could exacerbate climate change, according to a Cornell University study published Monday. The study, conducted by a team led by Cornell environmental engineering professor Anthony Ingraffea, analyzed more than 75,000 publicly available state environmental compliance records for about 41,000 oil and gas wells that had been drilled between 2000 and...
Antarctica's Emperor Penguins Will Be in Serious Decline By 2100, Study Says
2014-06-30 17:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Yale Environment 360: Antarctica's Emperor penguins are facing dramatic declines by the end of the century and should be given endangered species status because of the threats posed by climate change, according to an international group of scientists. If sea ice declines at the rates projected by current climate models, at least two-thirds of the colonies will likely shrink by more than 50 percent by 2100, the researchers say. That conclusion follows a 50-year study in eastern Antarctica of Emperor penguins, an iconic...
