Morning all,
The circumstances for this stem from a select group of residents who hold "upstanding" power over some of the North Lincs Councillors. These people are REAL NIMBY's. This has absolutely nothing to do with fracking and they know it. They are putting up a FAUX FIGHT against fracking and using it as an excuse to try and block conventional discoveries. I say "FAUX" because it's been found that councils have NINE BILLION of their pension pots invested in fracking.
They are looking to feather their nests by withholding conventional permissions. I hope Egdon and Union Jack go to town on them now, go for costs, loss of production and interest.
The Council had their chance, they ignored their own planning officers recommendations, made the partners jump through burning hoops and even ignored the recommendation of their own "independent" Hydrologist.
All that can be done for production planning has been put in place and even exceeeded.
Wressle was a company maker back then, 2.3m barrels is a huge find for a small company. ( with a potential controlling interest with Humber.)
