Economy and society

Shale gas exploration means more than geology and complex technology. This is also – or maybe primarily – economic and social aspects.

What are the economic aspects of exploration/production projects? What are the benefits and constraints of gas production? What taxes should the companies pay? Is shale gas expected to have an effect on the economy, tourism, to create new jobs? How exploration projects will affect the life of those living in immediate proximity? These and other questions are answered in the Section titled  Economy.

 Shale gas exploration and production is an important topic of the public debate. We will contribute to the public dialogue of investors, public authorities and the broadly defined society. We will publish results of social surveys. We will suggest a method of communication between all interested parties. We will demonstrate how it is done in other countries and to resolve other problems.

These and other questions are answered in the Section titled Society.

First of all, we want to write with you about topics you are interested in, respond to real-life problems and expectations, to provide knowledge and information that you need.
