Chance of fuel find is ‘one in five’

There is roughly a “one in five” chance of locating a viable source of fuel during the Woodburn forest exploration project, Dr Andrew Hindle has said.

The InfraStrata CEO outlined the figure at the first of two public information sessions in the Clarion Hotel last week.

Indicating this was the “standard” probability for this type of exploration project, Dr Hindle added: “I can understand that this is a bit of an unknown in Northern Ireland, but we have tried our best to show examples of similar projects that have taken place in other parts of the UK.”
