Live support chatFracking's Impact on Energy Markets & the Environment (Webinar)
Credit: 1 PDH
Subject Matter Expert: Ronald Miller, P.E., MBA, CEM, REP
Type: Live Interactive Webinar
In Fracking's Impact on Energy Markets & the Environment, you'll learn ...
- How the oil and gas industry drills a fracked well, and the safety and environmental precautions taken, the depths of wells, and the production methods involved.
- The impact that fracking has had on U.S. natural gas production, LNG export, gas and electricity prices.
- The large CO2 emitting countries in the world today and their future emission trajectory.
- The California Duck Curve and the relation to access to U.S. natural gas.
Overview
This webinar includes a data and fact-based overview of fracking practices, and its impact on the U.S. energy industry. The discussion uses several historical graphs to drive home the pertinent energy points relating to fracking. It is led by an expert with over 40 years technical, strategic, and financial experience in the energy sector, with 20 years with ExxonMobil.
Different energy generation technologies and their relative change over the last 20 years with regards to market share, emissions, and impact on electricity prices are discussed with relation to the fracking revolution since 2008.
The webinar is designed to provide more in-depth knowledge of fracking and how it has forever impacted U.S. natural gas supply and electricity prices.
