Jan 6 (LNGJ) – Caudrilla Resources, the UK shale-gas company, has begun work at its first hydraulic fracturing site located just east of the coastal city of Blackpool in northwest England. Construction at the fracking site started after Lancashire County Council found that all planning conditions had been met. “Twelve months from now we hope this work will prove the economic viability of this indigenous shale-gas resource in Lancashire which will help improve energy security for the nation,” said Caudrilla Chief Executive Francis Egan.
