This grant, offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), seeks to produce a comprehensive scientific and technical synthesis focused on well completion techniques, including hydraulic fracturing, specifically within California. The initiative will rigorously examine the state’s underlying geology and oil and gas potential, meticulously detail the entire process of various well completion methods, and thoroughly assess their associated environmental risks. As hydraulic fracturing and well completion are increasingly recognized as emerging and critical issues, there is a significant demand for reputable, baseline scientific information to inform BLM’s crucial future decisions regarding oil and gas resource management. Furthermore, this effort will greatly benefit the public by fostering an increased, science-based understanding of these complex and impactful techniques.
