Proceeding contribution from Christopher Pincher (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 3 November 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Shale Gas.
Shale Gas
The hon. Gentleman has discussed the pollution dangers from fracking. Does he accept that because fracking happens thousands of metres underground, whereas aquifers are probably only a couple of hundred metres below ground, with thick layers of rock between the two, the likely reason for pollution is not seepage of dirty water upwards, but failures in the well head or the bore itself?
