Oil and gas fracturing technology
Located in close proximity to the major industrial hubs on the US East Coast, Marcellus and Utica shale plays in the Appalachian basin have witnessed steady natural gas production growth over the last five-six years. Like the marriage of hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling by Mitchell Energy in the late 1990s, E-Frac weds two longstanding oilfield technologies to create an innovative solution. The fact Petroleum reservoir fracturing is set for a major improvement with new technologies going to work miles down from the surface and then out horizontally. Called fracking, the process uses pressure to break into oil and natural gas rocks and prop channels for the petroleum products to flow back out.
