FracTracker Launches Oil and Gas Tracking App
FracTracker Launches Oil and Gas Tracking App
November 12, 2014
As unconventional drilling or fracking intensifies, so too do the innovative ways in which citizens can track, monitor, and report potential issues from their smart phones.
The app allows users to submit oil and gas photos or reports. Users can also view a map of wells drilled near them and user-submitted reports. This map shows wells that have been drilled both unconventionally and conventionally.
FracTrackers app contributes to the collective understanding of oil and gas impacts and provides a new opportunity for public engagement, explains Brook Lenker, Executive Director of the FracTracker Alliance. We hope that our mobile app will revolutionize how people share oil and gas information.
