Chesapeake: NY Shale Drilling Rules Could Scare Off Companies

摘要

Chesapeake Energy last week called proposed new regulations on shale gas drilling by New York state legislators unnecessarily onerous and will likely scare energy companies out of the state, depriving it of revenue. "The measures proposed... will be more burdensome than any of those placed on our industry throughout the United States and will more than adequately ensure that the development of the Marcellus Shale natural gas formation in New York will occur with sufficient environmental safeguards," Chesapeake said.
