The Situation – The Energy CrisisGlobal Energy Consumption is rising at an ever increasing rate...

• Worldwide Oil & Gas reserves are peaking• It will take more energy to extract than is returned in energy• Soon demand will outweigh supply• The UK is facing an energy shortage – It’s CRUNCH time!

What happens to the ‘Produced Water’?

CBM can progress to Hydraulic Fracturing (Fracking) To force out the last of the methane gas

Spread of Industrial Landscape across Somerset
Chinchilla, Queensland

Eden Energy’s publicised Gas Assets in Bristol/Somerset area could equate to
2000+ Wells Based on amounts of CBM being
extracted from ‘Dart Energy’s wells in Falkirk, Scotland
Wells every 3 miles
Connected by a network of pipelines

Disturbance for our communityCBM extraction is a 24/7 Process
In Keynsham there will be • Increased Heavy Vehicle Traffic• Noise• Loss of Greenbelt / Agricultural land
It is also possible that there will be• Spillages and Leaks leading to groundwater contamination • Vibrations• Damage to other industries; farming, agriculture & tourism• Affects on house & property values
If CBM spreads across Somerset we risk• Sites and Enclosures • New access Roads Leading to the division of the countryside and disruption of Wildlife Corridors

Unconventional Gas Resources in UKEstimate Recoverable Resources (2011)
Q. CBM and Shale Gas - will they
keep the lights on?
A. NOT FOR LONG!!
(UK gas consumption is around 100 bcm per year)

And what about Climate Change - and our Carbon Reduction Targets?
