Alliance Aims to Open Fragile Areas to Oil and Gas Drilling
Clipped to the Drawing Board by Susan Decker  
Low-impact oil and gas drilling is the goal of a new collaborative research program announced today by the Houston Advanced Research Center and the Harold Vance Department of Petroleum Engineering at Texas A&M University.

The research targets advanced technologies that can be used to open up environmentally sensitive areas currently off limits to drilling and production.

New systems will be designed to be compatible with environmentally sensitive or off-limits areas such as federal lands in the Western United States, the wetlands of the Gulf Coast, and the Alaskan North Slope.
