Environmental aspects of shale gas recovery in Baltic Basin

Abstract

Factors limiting shale gas exploration and exploitation in Pomorskie Voivodeship are presented. In particular, ground and surface water availability and land/community impact is discussed. Production from unconventional reservoirs requires proper well completion through hydraulic fracturing, hence voluminous streams of water are needed – in total 8000 to 20000 m3 per 1000 m of borehole length. 17 major groundwater basins were characterized. Spatial planning related to the management of production areas and protected areas in Pomerania is also addressed. Population density in Pomorskie Voivodeship is 125 person per 1 km2 and there is 32,7% of protected areas which may interfere with drilling pad site planning. Availability of water in Pomorskie should not hinder shale gas production
