  • What are organic compounds linked to wastewater from unconventional oil & gas production?
  • Organic compounds linked to wastewater from unconventional oil and gas (UOG) production found in stream water and sediments. Stream (Wolf Creek) located near a type II injection well accepting UOG wastewater is a secondary drinking water supply.
  • Does unconventional oil and gas development affect water quality?
  • No eLetters have been published for this article yet. Science The impact of unconventional oil and gas development on water quality is a major environmental concern. We built a large geocoded database that combines surface water measurements with horizontally...
  • Why is unconventional oil & gas extraction a problem?
  • The large volume of wastewater produced during unconventional oil and gas (UOG) extraction is a significant challenge for the energy industry and of environmental concern, as the risks due to leaks, spills, and migration of these fluids into natural waters are unknown.
  • Why is unconventional oil and gas development important?
  • Although unconventional oil and gas (O&G) development has been important for energy production ( 6 ), we do not fully understand the associated environmental and social risks ( 7 – 11 ). These risks include hydrocarbon emissions, water usage, and pollution, along with potential human and ecological health consequences ( 7, 10, 12 – 16 ).
