UK Shale Gas

Proceeding contribution from Alan Whitehead (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 July 2013. It occurred during Adjournment debate and Backbench debate on UK Shale Gas.

If every country in Europe produced the same amount of shale gas that is presently being produced in the US, yes, that is possible, in terms of the trading in the European market, but that probably is not going to be the case. Therefore we have to look at the relevant prices of gas within the markets. It is a question of trading in a market, not a question of the gas being plugged into someone’s home and therefore creating a reduction in price as far as that house is concerned.
