Poland miscalculated with shale gas production

Poland miscalculated, betting on shale gas production, hopes were not justified. This was stated by Jerzy Kwieczyński, Chairman of the Board of the Polish oil and gas concern PGNiG, on the air of Polish Radio.

Answering a journalist's question about whether the hopes for shale gas production were justified, Kveczynski replied that if "in the near future, then not very much." At the same time, he noted that Poland could return to shale gas production "in the distant future" when methods for its production will be worked out.



Reportedly, a few years ago, the Polish authorities staked on the production of their own shale gas. Specialists from the United States have calculated that up to a trillion cubic meters of gas can be produced in the country. However, hopes were not destined to come true, since gas in Poland lies deeper than in the United States, and it is simply unprofitable to extract it, especially since world gas prices have fallen. It is also emphasized that the American shale gas production technology is not suitable for Poland.

It must be said that shale gas in Poland is not exactly the same as in the United States. The technology that worked well there did not work well in Europe. This applies not only to Poland, but also to other countries. So we must put this "dream" aside for now.

- said Kveczynski

Recall that the agreement on the supply of Russian gas to Poland expires in 2022, and Warsaw has repeatedly stated that it does not intend to renew it.

        And also Poland will miscalculate with the American shale gas - it simply will not be enough with the current bankruptcy of their shale producers. And Poland will miscalculate with Russian gas - gas will go past it. Yes

          So they tried a much better way to solve gas problems, both in Ukraine and in Poland - to fine Gazprom.
          Draw fines for the amount of gas needs, and at the prices of American liquefied gas, add there the cost of building storage and regasification facilities, and EVERYTHING - life is a success.
          Moreover, this does not depend on whether there is a pipe or not. Arrest yourself Gazprom money around the world and send it to Uncle Sam, and Uncle Sam will supply democratic gas straight from the city on the hill ... at any price he likes.

          The time will come when the Poles will scratch at the doors of Gazprom, only then he will remember those 2,5 billion dollars that they have seized from him and their zeal to obstruct the construction of the SP-2.

          I'm just sure that if the Poles understand their stupidity and ask for Russian gas again, Miller and others like him will rush to meet them, because this directly concerns Gazprom's foreign exchange earnings. And the well-being of Gazprom is above all. This is, after all, a "PEOPLE'S TRUE"!

        the main thing is not to buy from Gazprom. Mathematics - an imperial science from the North - is used by scientists in independent countries. A good Pole will never use some kind of math, if there is an option to show the Muscovite Duly

        And since such a booze - it's time for the Poles to make the most expensive gas. We still need to fight back what they have sued

      I think they will again fine Gazprom through their own court for the fact that their oil shale is too expensive.
      One hope is that after the completion of JV2, Germany will simply crush them with prices for gas supplies. And it's more expensive to complain about Germany - to immediately lose the remaining subsidies from the EU.

      I saw a documentary showing the environmental disaster in Texas as a result of shale gas production. Lunar landscape, all life destroyed by toxic chemicals to rupture hydroplasts. But the area of ​​Texas is 695 square meters. km, and the area of ​​the country Poland is 662 312 sq. km, i.e. half the size, nature is completely different, Poland, alas, is located in densely populated Europe. It seems that it has finally reached the Poles that there is no need to play ape. It is not difficult to guess who will pick up the "baton" for shale gas production in Europe.

      Some kind of crap in the article. Peremozhnaya.

      When the oil shale boom was still beginning, it was reported about the meeting of the European Energy Commission that the reserves in Poland and Europe are small, inconvenient, and they will not be particularly developed.

      Here in the Donbas there are large deposits ... But there the polite little green men arrived in time and made everyone Kayuk.

      So the Europeans and Poles never had any hope or illusions. They hardly wrote about the production.

      Gas prices are very low.
      To extract and transport even ordinary gas is on the verge of profitability.
      Liquefied can still be sold, because it is bought "in reserve". Only Qatar (and Australia?) Gas liquefaction is profitable because of the large volumes of production and sales.

      To extract shale using the method of hydrodynamic fracturing is generally not to respect its nature and population. We have banned this by law. And gas has become so cheap and can be bought literally everywhere in Europe that there is no point in contaminating nature. Russian, American, Azeri, in the future, and Mediterranean gas - all of this can be bought for cheap and it will be so for a very long time.

      Quote: Russia has delivered to the US over 9 million tons of oil products for $ 2,2 billion in six months. This is a record since at least 2004, according to the data of the Federal Customs Service. According to experts, the States are replacing heavy oil from the sanctioned Venezuela with fuel oil ...
      “In the USA they are guided only by the economic component. Apparently, during this period (the first half of 2020), Russian fuel is more profitable than other offers, so importers in the United States increased their purchases. Including fuel from Russia replaces Venezuelan supplies "- said an analyst at Raiffeisenbank ..." End of quote.

      With shale "in the near future, it is not very good", but as in the near future with the Norwegian for the widely advertised Baltic Pipe. Of the planned 10 billion so far, the Poles have their own production of 2,5 - 3 billion, and it is not known how it will go, but to buy the remaining 7 billion from the Norwegians who have their own obligations ... And the environmentalists turned around, started collecting signatures against Baltic Pipe , if they get 50 thousand, the question will go to parliament ... we'll see, but for now ...
      According to PGNiG, the company imported 1,15 billion cubic meters from the southern and western directions. However, as the statistics of ENTSOG, the united platform of European GTS operators, show, only 220 million cubic meters came in the form of real supplies - from the Czech Republic. The rest was made up of a virtual reverse from Germany.

      The Poles are ready to do anything to please amers before the settlement period for the huge funds allocated by the European Union for the Polish economy begins. Trying to escape from creditors, cleverly done psheks are trying to get on an American ship, but the sides are high and the Eurobankers are pulling by the legs. In this regard, I would like to recall the expresident of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych. who, with his power, decided to blow up the strata of the northern Donbass to the tune of the US Democrats and their carriage driver Biden, fortunately the boy could not stay in the saddle, otherwise the Donbass would still remember his fellow countryman with an unkind word for this reason.

      There are two types of independence in the modern world. Showy and real. The first is determined by the volume of the vocal cords. The second is energy + the ability to provide yourself with this energy. (This clarification is necessary to understand why the United States, Switzerland and Japan are conditionally independent).

      So the former republics of the USSR and the ATS countries are champions in the gap between ostentatious and real independence. Showy independence rushing from all cracks, as from a combination of stale kefir and whitewash. And real independence tends to zero - for they have neither their own energy, nor the ability to obtain this energy by economic or military means.
