April 16 Penn State Webinar On Recent Pipeline Developments

Penn State Extension will host a free webinar on April 16 starting at 1:00 p.m. on recent pipeline developments related to Marcellus Shale natural gas development.

Shale Gas production eclipsed 4 trillion cubic feet in Pennsylvania in 2014, and reports of pipeline construction – to move this production to market – have been in the news almost daily.

How much pipeline infrastructure is needed? And what is the status of these projects? Those questions will be addressed in the webinar

"There has been a tremendous amount of pipeline development occurring in and around Pennsylvania in recent years," said Dave Messersmith, Penn State Extension educator, who will moderate the session. "We anticipate this trend will continue into the foreseeable future."

The Penn State shale gas webinars are free, but registration is necessary.   For more information, contact Carol Loveland at 570-320-4429 or by email to: cal24@psu.edu.
