ABSTRACT

Question: Who would have predicted it 20 or 30 years ago?

Answer: No one.

In August 1970, I published a Master of Science Thesis entitled “Low Permeability Gas Reservoir Production Using Large Hydraulic Fractures.” I had no idea that I would still be working on this issue in 2014, much less reading articles every day in the media about “Fracking.” It is astonishing if not bizarre.
