Hydraulic Fracturing Near Domestic Wells Research Brief
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- The two main findings highlight that (1) hydraulic fracturing takes place in close proximity to domestic groundwater wells in many cases, and (2) there were significantly more oil and gas wells—conventional and unconventional—producing in 2014 than those that were hydraulically fractured during 2014, and these oil and gas wells are often in close proximity to domestic groundwater wells, too.
