Methane Gas Emissions Related to Shale Gas Production

LNG gas tanksPenn State Extension presents a complimentary webinar titled “What We Know and Don’t Know About Methane Gas Emissions Associated With Shale Gas Production.”

Dr. Kenneth Davis, professor of meteorology at Penn State University, is the presenter.

While the gas is a valuable energy source, it also is a potent greenhouse gas, says the moderator, Dave Messersmith.

The webinar discusses the methods used to measure the amount of methane gas emission from shale gas production, the current state of knowledge of these emissions and the current research led by Penn State to improve our knowledge of such emissions.
