The study by University College London suggests a link between oil extraction and a series of earthquakes in Surrey, challenging earlier claims of no connection.
Matthew Fox and Philip Meredith’s simulations indicate that the earthquakes in Surrey, which caused damage to homes, could indeed be related to local drilling operations.
Around 1,600 residents reported seismic activity, which sparked concerns about the safety of drilling practices and the environmental accountability of UK Oil & Gas.
Despite initial findings that downplayed the correlation, growing evidence from recent research continues to raise alarms among environmentalists and the affected community.
