Researching Fracking in Europe (ReFINE) is a UK-based academic research group led by Durham Energy Institute, one of eight Research Institutes at Durham University.
Contents
Activities
- The consortium focuses on the issue of shale gas and oil exploitation using fracking methods and its potential risks.
- Over a two year period ReFINE will carry out scientific research, with the recognition that there are many important social impacts related to the potentially widespread exploitation of gas- or oil-rich shales across Europe. [1]
