I don't understand why you say experiment... It's a proven technology, clean, safe and with over 1 million wells frac'd in the US it's not exactly new. We've frac'd wells onshore and offshore in the UK, until it became another cause celebre of the green movement, then it became 'dangerous'.

Inject some water, increase the pressure until the fracture pressure of the aqifer is exceeded, fill the resultant fractures with sand to prop them open and a little biocide to protect the groundwater in case of migration. Drop the pressure, recover the water and dispose of safely and then let the gas flow to surface.

It's very simple, and safe.

Please, please don't believe the propaganda!
