Germany To Drill For Gas In North Sea To Reduce Reliance On Russia

  1. Well Europe up until recently were killing it when it came to self supply of gas/oil until we outsourced our energy needs.

    This is a lesson.

  2. Is the gas that’s extracted limited in some way to the domestic market or is the company that extracts the gas able to put it on the free market?

  3. >[…] the field and those nearby have a potential to deliver ~60 billion cubic meters of natural gas, meaning they can supply nearly half of the Netherlands 40 billion cubic meters annual consumption and Germany’s 90 billion cubic meters.

    That ought to make a Dent.This hardly seems like a quick Deal either, meaning the Supply will persist a good while.

  4. How long does it take to drill a new well and get it to produce? I would have thought this is a labour of years and not a few months.
