Cuadrilla names two new Lancashire fracking sites
Cuadrilla plans to frack for shale gas at two sites near Roseacre and Little Plumpton, between Blackpool and Preston. This is the first time a shale gas explorer will seek permission for fracking since the lifting in December 2012 of an 18-month ban on the controversial practice - imposed after earth tremors in 2011. The company will now begin consultation with residents and submit its application in coming months. Drilling could commence around the end of this year, with fracking taking place early in 2015.
