The practical effect of the current moratorium on unconventional oil and gas, and the on-going policy-making process, is that no fracking or other unconventional oil and gas activity can take place in Scotland at this time. Further information can be found on the Scottish Government website at: Hydraulic fracturing or fracking, has proven to be a safe, well-tested technology that has enabled the U.S. to dramatically increase unconventional oil and natural gas production. Fracking has been performed in more than 1.7 million wells since 1947 with an exemplary safety record. Oil giants such as BP, ExxonMobil, Shell and Chevron now dominate the gas industry. The industry’s chief front group, Energy In Depth (EID), goes to great lengths to maintain the “mom and pop” image of the industry, claiming it represents small and independent gas producers.

Hydraulic fracturing or fracking, has proven to be a safe, well-tested technology that has enabled the U.S. to dramatically increase unconventional oil and natural gas production. Fracking has been performed in more than 1.7 million wells since 1947 with an exemplary safety record. Despite the terms, conventional and unconventional oil refers to the method of oil extraction. While unconventional methods have grown more prominent over the past several years, conventional oil methods are still used. It’s important to recognize that when used together, both methods can maximize extraction from a single location. Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, is a technique designed to recover gas and oil from shale rock. Energy firm Cuadrilla has begun fracking in the UK for the first time since the process was Talking ‘Fracking’: A Consultation on Unconventional Oil and Gas - Analysis of Responses Published Responses View submitted responses where consent has been given to publish the response. In January 2017 we launched Talking “Fracking”: a consultation on unconventional oil and gas, which invited views on the evidence of the potential impacts of unconventional oil and gas in Scotland, and on the future of the industry. Unconventional oil and gas deposits are contained in impermeable rocks, such as shale or coal deposits. In these cases, the oil or gas cannot easily flow through the reservoir. To extract the oil and gases, techniques such as hydraulic fracturing (commonly referred to as fracking) or coal bed methane dewatering are used.
