Hydraulic Fracturing for Natural Gas and Geothermal Energy in Lower Saxony   (BAFRAC)

The topic shows the location as well as further details of natural gas and geothermal drilling in Lower Saxony, where Hydraulic Fracturing measures was applied.

Hydraulic Fracturing (Fracking) is a technique used to treat rocks to create artificial flow paths. In this case, cracks are generated in the rocks by pressing in a Frac-liquid. The rock is broken up into sometimes several hundred meters long, narrow cracks that are filled with fine grained material of special sand in the Frack-fluid, so the cracks do not close again. When the Frac-technology is used in natural gas production, the production rate of a natural gas drilling is to be increased.
